Colorado alum Travis Hunter surprised with exciting new portrait at Heisman house after enshrinement with CFB legends ft. Baker Mayfield 

Former Colorado two-way player Travis Hunter won the Heisman Trophy in December. The Heisman is college football’s biggest individual award, given to the most outstanding player in the country. Hunter received the award in New York City and, with it, a special honor of his portrait being added to the Heisman House.

The Heisman House is part of an ad campaign by Nissan and ESPN. It imagines what it would be like if all Heisman winners lived together in one big house. In the commercials, players hang out, joke with each other, and welcome new winners like Hunter.

This year’s ads feature Travis Hunter alongside past Heisman winners like Baker Mayfield, Barry Sanders, Tim Tebow, Eddie George, RG3, Jayden Daniels and Gino Torretta.

The commercials will air throughout the college football season on ESPN, ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and online.

Anyone who wants to tour the virtual Heisman House can visit Nissan Heisman House’s website, and also watch behind-the-scenes videos, vote for upcoming Heisman winners and see the latest Nissan vehicles featured in the campaign.

There’s also a special Heisman House Tour, where a real version of the house travels to college campuses. Fans can take photos with the Heisman Trophy, meet players and enjoy the experience in person.

Travis Hunter on a “road trip” with older Heisman House inductees

The Nissan Heisman House commercials are back and for their 15th installment, and this year’s campaign looks a little different. Instead of the usual fictional mansion where Heisman winners live together, the house has been shut down due to a surprise city inspection. So, the Heisman winners are hitting the road in Nissan vehicles.

Along with Travis Hunter, the older generation of inductees get into fun situations like camping out. The campaign includes five new commercials airing throughout the college football season.

This year there is also a crossover with Dr. Pepper’s “Fansville.” In one ad, Baker Mayfield and Barry Sanders meet Sheriff Brian Bosworth, combining the two ad series.

The campaign also shows Nissan’s latest vehicles, including the Rogue Rock Creek, Frontier PRO-4X, Pathfinder Rock Creek and the all-electric 2026 Leaf, the most affordable EV currently on the market in the U.S.
