Jacksonville Jaguars the rookie Travis Hunter had a complete circle moment with a woman who met on a plane a few days after the organization selected him with the number 2 selection of the NFL draft.
The encounter with the Sandy Hawkins Peines occurred in May. On Monday night, before the team faced the Kansas City Chiefs, Hunter and combs hugged and took a photo in the field before the start.

The combs seemed to be a little bewildered at the moment.
The fortuitous meeting between Hunter and combs came to light in a publication on social networks.
“I had the most wonderful flight home from Denver. I met the most pleasant young man who sat next to me. He offered to put my bag in the upper compartment and helped me with my tray. He was always courteous, saying ‘Yes, Madam’ or ‘No Lady’. Anyone would be proud to have him as a son or grandson, very educated,” Comong said on Hunter in a Facebook post.
At this point, however, combs still had no idea who this stranger was. But then, other passengers began to notice.

“The people who walked said congratulations, a great job or even taking photos. I turned and asked:” Who am I sitting next to? “I looked at his jaguar pants, smile and asked:” Are you an athlete? “He smiled and said: ‘I’m Travis. I already told my children that I want his shirt,” Comong continued.
“It’s so humble and realistic: I would never have guessed that I was a professional athlete. Jacksonville Jags, you did well! I will buy tickets. United Airlines, thank you for my seat task!”
For Hunter, it was just an ordinary talk with combs.
“It was just a regular interaction. It was me,” Hunter said days later. “A beautiful lady sat next to me, we talked and made sure to take care of her as if I did my grandparents or any older person. So yes, that was all.”
