isn't wasting any time turning heads in the NFL. Just weeks after being drafted No. 2 overall by the
Jacksonville Jaguars
, the former Colorado star is going viral not for a highlight reel, but for flexing stacks of hundred-dollar bills like it's nothing. From YouTube clips to social media reactions, Hunter's post-draft lifestyle is making just as much noise as his on-field talent.

Fans flooded X and Instagram with reactions ranging from 'HE'S HIM' to 'Jaguars got themselves a superstar.' And honestly? They're not wrong. Hunter signed a projected four-year, $46.5 million rookie deal, and he's already living like it.

Another thing that's been making rounds on the internet is when Hunter's fiancée,
Leanna Lenee
, gifted him a Rolex watch to celebrate his big moment. Hunter's reaction was priceless. While he was clearly touched by the luxury timepiece, he had to make one thing clear, he's not the type to hand out $50K gifts like candy.
'Don't expect these kinds of gifts from me,'
he joked in the video, grinning at the camera. And just like that, Hunter's charm, humor, and realness had fans falling for him even harder.
The Jaguars are betting big on Hunter's two-way dominance in the NFL
But beneath all the flash, there's serious football business happening. Hunter, who became a household name at Colorado for playing both offense and defense, was a
Heisman winner
and arguably the most exciting player in college football. The Jaguars traded up to draft him, making it clear that they're betting on his rare two-way skill set.

Who Is Joey Swoll? Fitness influencer quits social media after backlash over Hulk Hogan tribute

Joey Swoll (Image via Instagram) and Hulk Hogan (Image via WWE) Hulk Hogan 's sudden death brought out many people to pay tribute to the legendary wrestler. From fellow wrestlers to bodybuilders, and a lot more from the celebrity world. One such person was Joey Swoll - a bodybuilder and social media influencer. He has been a fan of the wrestler for a long time, and took to his Instagram to post a tribute to The Hulkster after his sudden passing. And that has now led to him quitting social media for good. Joey Swoll faced backlash over Hulk Hogan tribute Joey Swoll is one of the more popular social media influencers from the West Coast and has made a name for himself as a bodybuilder. The CEO of Gym Positivity has been known for outing gym bullies on his social media platform, and is quite liked by many. After the recent death of Hulk Hogan, he reposted a video of himself wearing a Hulk Hogan Halloween costume while working out. It was an old video that he had posted quite a few times over the years, filmed at Gold's Gym in Venice, California. But after he used it to pay tribute to the WWE Hall of Famer, he faced a lot of backlash from his followers. Following this, he went on a livestream after deleting the video, and said: 'I would be a hypocrite if I didn't hold myself to the same standards. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Access all TV channels anywhere, anytime Techno Mag Learn More Undo I am human, I am still growing and learning and I promise to all of you I will do better.

Joey Swoll quits social media after severe backlash After the tribute video brought him a lot of backlash, Joey Swoll said he was unaware of the scandals surrounding Hulk Hogan . He had previously said that Hogan was one of the inspirations behind him starting to work out and do bodybuilding. But after he began researching the man beneath the mask, or well, bandana in Hogan's case, he found out a lot about his once-inspiration. But even after his apology, the backlash continued, and Swoll has now decided to quit social media. 'All the good I've done, all the people I've helped, all for nothing. I truly hope all the people I've inspired do great things in their life and pay it forward to help others and carry on my message. But no matter how much good you do, people just wait for a reason to hate you and tear you down. You either die a hero, or live long enough to be the villain. Thank you for your support. I am done.' The man faced even more backlash after the recorded video was posted because of using the term "colored" instead of "person of color" and has since apologized for it as well.
