Travis Hunter will likely miss the group’s next two games as he continues to recover from a lacerated liver, coach Deion Sanders said Tuesday.”Let’s state 2 or three [

weeks], “stated Sanders, when asked about Hunter’s healing.”It would be my dream and desire for him to stay out till after the bye week. “The Buffaloes( 3-2, 0-2 Pac-12) dip into Arizona State on Saturday and host Stanford next week before they will have a week off before traveling to UCLA on Oct. 28. Editor’s Picks “Travis is succeeding,”Sanders said.”He ran out practice today coaching his butt off. He’s one of the best coaches we

have.”Hunter suffered the injury throughout Colorado’s win versus Colorado State on Sept. 16. With him unavailable, the Buffaloes have actually

lost their past two games, to Oregon(42-6)and USC(48-41 ). In 10 quarters prior to the injury, Hunter, whom Sanders has actually called the team’s best player on both sides of the ball, had 16 receptions for 233 backyards on offense and an interception, 2 pass breakups and nine tackles on defense.Colorado was also without Sanders’son, safety Shilo Sanders, against USC on Saturday, but his return is expected to come quicker, the coach said.
