Deion Sanders Reveals How He Resolved Travis Hunter, Richard Sherman Feud

Deion Sanders Reveals How He Resolved Travis Hunter, Richard Sherman Feud originally appeared on Athlon Sports. When Travis Hunter found himself blindsided by criticism from one of his idols, the reaction was immediate—and emotional. Richard Sherman had made comments about Hunter that the young former Colorado star didn't take lightly, sparking tension between the two. But before it could escalate further, Deion Sanders stepped in. Advertisement Sanders, who has guided Hunter's development both on and off the field, revealed the story during a conversation with Asante Samuel on the podcast 'Say What Needs To Be Said.' And according to Coach Prime, it was his own past mistakes that led him to act quickly this time. 'Richard said something about Travis,' Sanders explained. 'Travis got bent out of shape… He was mad. Then Travis went back at it.' Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Travis Hunter (12) during rookie minicamp at Miller Electric Register-Imagn Images But instead of letting things boil over, Sanders took a different route—one rooted in growth. 'I called Sherman. I said, 'Sherman, get on the phone.' He goes, 'Right, we was on the practice field.' I said, 'Get on the phone right now, Travis. Y'all get this right. Because I love both of y'all.'' Advertisement What pushed him to act so decisively? Sanders recalled his own strained relationship with Samuel. 'That wouldn't have been in my spirit if that hadn't happened with you,' he told Samuel. 'We never fixed it.' Rather than let history repeat itself, Sanders used his influence to help the two men talk it out—emphasizing how damaging it can be for young players to feel targeted by their heroes. 'These are youngsters looking up to the OGs,' Sanders said. 'And then when the OGs say something about them, they think it's derogatory. That hurts, man.' He reminded Sherman of Hunter's admiration. 'You said you was one of his best, that he looked up to. You know how that broke that man?' Advertisement The resolution, Sanders said, wasn't just about Hunter and Sherman. It was about setting an example for the next generation—and showing that even in conflict, there's room for respect, accountability, and healing.

Crocs classic clogs get an almost 50% price cut bringing them down to less than £30

Love them or hate them, Crocs have been having a resurgence and the classic clogs are currently less than £30 in a limited-time Amazon deal ahead of summer Whether you're a fan or not, there's no denying the Croc resurgence we've been seeing over the past few years. Bedazzled and heeled Crocs were seen all over Simone Rocha's SS24 runway show, while new styles including flip flop Crocs and chunky platform Crocs have come about, and helped give them a fashion edge. And if you love the controversial shoe, you're in luck as you can grab a pair of the OGs for less than £30 in a limited time Amazon sale. The Classic Clogs are typically priced between £40 and £50, depending on retailers, but with Amazon's almost 50% discount, you can grab them for £28. These comfy clogs are lightweight, super easy to clean, and designed with those iconic ventilation holes that keep things cool and breezy, plus, they let water and sand drain right out, which is perfect for beach days or boat trips. The Croslite™ material is what gives them that soft, cushiony feel that moulds perfectly to your foot, and the heel strap keeps everything secure while you're on the move. With over 400,000 reviews and an average rating of 4.5 stars, it's clear these iconic shoes have some big fans. Shoppers most commonly praise them for their comfort, durability, and lightweight design. One shopper finally gave into the divisive shoe, and wrote: "I never thought I'd say this, but I'm genuinely impressed with my first pair of Crocs. Admittedly, I used to hate the style—just the thought of wearing them made me cringe—but I decided to give them a try, and I'm so glad I did. The comfort level is incredible! They feel like walking on clouds, and the rear band works brilliantly for a secure fit. On top of that, they're super versatile" While a second said: "Practical , robust and comfortable. Good for gardening, short walks and easy to clean". A flag from shoppers, however, was that the Crocs show up on the larger and wider side, so we recommend sizing down if you're in between sizes. If you're not convinced by Crocs, why not try out the Birkenstock rubberised Super Birkis, loved by Meghan Markle herself. These are the perfect chuck-on-and-go clogs for gardening and other practical tasks around the house.

Now You See Me Now You Don't Trailer: Jesse Eisenberg, Team Are Ready For Epic Illusion

Last Updated: In the Now You See Me Now You Don't trailer, Jesse Eisenberg's character gathers a team of young illusionists to steal a heart-shaped diamond from a wealthy family. The first official trailer for Now You See Me Now You Don't has finally dropped online. The upcoming instalment brings back original stars Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco, as the Four Horsemen. Alongside the OGs, a new generation of magicians will help them perform mind-blowing tricks. In the trailer, Eisenberg's character, Daniel Atlas, gathers a team of young illusionists for 'a trick that is bigger and better than anything you've ever seen." Their mission is to steal a priceless 'heart diamond" from a wealthy family. But as always, the team needs backup, which brings Franco's Jack Wilder, Harrelson as Merritt McKinney and Henley Reeves, played by Fisher, back into the action. The series, which started in 2013, follows four magicians who use magic and illusion tricks to do daring heists. But instead of stealing for themselves, they pass the money to people who need help. Along with Eisenberg, Harrelson, Franco and Fisher, the new movie will also see the return of Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes and Morgan Freeman as Thaddeus Bradley. The previous film, Now You See Me 2, was released back in 2016, and since then, fans have been waiting for a sequel. The trailer for the third instalment hints that all the new and old magicians will come together for their biggest heist in the franchise. According to Variety, when the first look of Now You See Me Now You Don't was unveiled at CinemaCon earlier this month, a fourth movie was confirmed by Lionsgate's Motion Picture Group chair Adam Fogelson. He said, 'We were so happy with the director's cut, we're already developing the next chapter. We can't wait for audiences to discover what he's done with the third film and thrilled he'll be making even more magic with us." Admiring the director, Adam added, 'Ruben Fleischer has delivered all of the twists and turns and sleight-of-hand that audiences expect from this franchise while upping the stakes and scale in every way. We can't wait for audiences to discover what he's done with the third film and are thrilled he'll be making even more magic with us." Now You See Me Now You Don't reunites Jesse Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson with Ruben Fleischer, who previously directed Zombieland in 2009. First Published:
