Colorado has secured record-breaking disability insurance policies for star players Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders ahead of the Alamo Bowl against BYU on December 28. The policies, described as the largest in college football history, were arranged to ensure that the Heisman Trophy winner Hunter and quarterback Sanders participate in the game despite the risk of injury. The initiative was spearheaded by Colorado coach Deion Sanders, with the university's athletic director Rick George confirming the unprecedented nature of the coverage. This move aims to protect the potential NFL draft prospects, who are projected to be among the first picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, from financial loss due to injury during the bowl game.
