Video Shows Travis Hunter Shutting Down Reporter Who Asked About His Pre-Game Baptism

Travis Hunter opted for baptism moments before facing the Seahawks, seemingly believing it would guarantee victory. A reporter couldn’t help but pose the provocative question about the significance of his pre-game immersion, to which Hunter labeled the inquiry as quite absurd. The 22-year-old wide receiver and defensive back was immersed at Celebration Church in Jacksonville, Florida, as captured in a video shared by Kristine Love, who remarked on her delayed arrival due to misplaced keys. “He asked to be baptized before today’s game,” she noted alongside the footage. Hunter revealed that this spiritual act was long anticipated, signifying a personal transformation. “It’s Sunday; it’s God’s day. I’ve been planning this for a while,” he stated to ESPN. "This experience means a lot; I’m evolving into a better version of myself, marking a fresh start.” A key takeaway? Be cautious when posing inquiries to someone recently rejuvenated in faith.
