Former Collins Hill star Travis Hunter, the AJC’s high school player of the year for Georgia in 2021, was picked as one of four finalists for the Heisman Trophy Monday night.

Hunter, who plays for Colorado, is joined by Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel, Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty and Miami’s Cam Ward as the final four.

The Heisman has been given to the nation’s most outstanding college football player since 1935. This year’s winner will be announced Saturday in New York. The top four top vote-getters determined by more than 900 voters — the panel includes members of the media and former Heisman winners — are selected as finalists.

A look at each of the finalist’s road to Manhattan.
