It was a special night for Travis Hunter’s fiancée, Leanna Lenee, in the bustling New York City on Saturday. The odds currently suggest (+2500) that Hunter is the favorite to win the prestigious Heisman Trophy.

And, as the Colorado two-way star was busy with media interviews ahead of the ceremony, Lenee spent time with a very special person in NYC: Grete Griffin. Grete, the wife of former NFL quarterback turned analyst Robert Griffin III, was an excellent company for Leanna. Griffin had won the Heisman Trophy, back in 2011.

Reflecting on the Heisman dinner, Grete, also the co-host of Griffin’s “Outta Pocket with RGIII,” posted an Instagram story with the caption, “Heisman dinner with the beautiful.” 

Leanna reacted to Grete’s adorable comment with a story that read, “obsessed with you.” In the photo shared on Instagram, Leanna wore a black outfit, while Grete opted for blue, complemented by her black jeans. 

Earlier, Grete also enjoyed a “date night” in New York at Meduza Mediterrania with RGIII, ahead of meeting Leanna. She posted a heartwarming Instagram story where the duo looked relaxed before the Heisman ceremony.

Hunter and Leanna are not visibly nervous, but looking to enjoy their time in NYC before the announcement. While interacting with the ESPN team, Hunter said he wanted to “finish off right” on what he has achieved with Deion Sanders and Shedeur in Colorado.
Leanna will hope that her fiancé receives the ultimate college football honor for his 1,152 receiving yards, 31 tackles, and 14 TD performance, this season in Colorado.
