For most of the year, Travis Hunter was penciled in as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
However, with the Tennessee Titans getting the first selection, it seemed like they were going with a quarterback, specifically Cam Ward.
Now, a report reveals that the odds have shifted again.
“Travis Hunter’s odds to be the No. 1 overall pick by the Titans have been rising very quickly, via Polymarket Sport. He’s closing in on Cam Ward as the new favorite to go first,” JPAFootball wrote on X.

The Titans reportedly will not pass on a “generational talent” with the top pick, even if they need a quarterback.
Hunter is perhaps the best prospect in his class.
He’s the No. 1 defensive back and wide receiver, and it’s not particularly close.
The Colorado star reportedly wants to play on both sides of the ball in the pros, as he did in high school and college.
Scouts think his exceptional ball skills make him a better fit at cornerback, yet he insists on also playing wide receiver.
The Titans could use help at both positions, especially if cornerback L’Jarius Sneed struggles like he did in his first year with the organization.
As for quarterback, Tennessee could look to address that situation in free agency.
Perhaps they will even give Will Levis another opportunity to prove he can be an NFL-caliber starter.
Hunter looks like a game-changing two-way player, and any team would be fortunate to get him, regardless of its positional needs.
