Brand new NFL star Travis Hunter may be a first-round draft pick with millions on the horizon, but he's not here for flashy flexes-and definitely not for a $70,000 Rolex. In a behind-the-scenes look at his whirlwind 2025 NFL Draft Day, fans got a front-row seat to a moment that had everyone laughing. Just as the Colorado standout was getting suited up in pink for his big night, his fiancée Leanna Lenee surprised him with what she thought was the ultimate gift: a luxury watch fit for a king-a presidential Rolex.
Hunter's response? Pure comedy gold. "Wait!
What type of watch is this?" he asked, eyes wide. When someone confirmed it was a Rolex, Hunter whipped out his phone and asked Siri the dreaded question: "How much does a presidential Rolex cost?"
Upon learning it could run upwards of $30,000 to $70,000, Hunter didn't hold back. "I could have bought a new boat! Why you just ain't give me a boat?"
How to roast a $70K Rolex according to TH And just like that, the two-way phenom roasted the extravagant present in front of his entire entourage. "It's a good investment," he admitted before warning everyone in the room: "Don't expect these types of gifts from me. That ain't happening, my boy."
While his peers chase diamonds and custom rides, Hunter's heart belongs elsewhere-on the water. ESPN reports he dreams of fishing more than fame, and his prized possession isn't a chain or car, but a gold fishing reel gifted after his Heisman win. Raised fishing in Florida canals and now a frequent guest on Coach Deion Sanders' Texas ranch, the Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback would rather hook a bass than blow a bag.
A proof of love and loyalty from Leanna Even so, Leanna's pricey present wasn't just about sparkle-it was a symbol of loyalty through a turbulent year of NIL scrutiny and online drama. "She helped me save a lot of money," Hunter said fondly, before adding with a grin: "It's not about the NIL, it's about the NFL." The couple's relationship, born in Georgia high school hallways, now faces new pressure under the bright lights of the league.
But if a Rolex can survive Travis' roast, maybe it's got a shot-just like their bond. One thing's for sure: Hunter's engine runs on grit, not glitz. As he put it best: "I don't like parties.
I don't like doing nothing else but playing video games, football, chilling with the family… and fishing."
