Travis Hunter's wife Leanna shares heartfelt post on sleepless midnight shifts with newborn son image

Travis Hunter and his wife, Leanna Lenee, are settling into their life as new parents. 

The Jacksonville Jaguars star and his college sweetheart secretly welcomed their first child, a newborn son, in August. 

Very few people knew about Lenee's pregnancy, and the young couple have continued to keep much of their baby's life private. They haven't publicly shared their son's name or released a full photo of their newborn, but instead have given fans sweet glimpses into their journey as sleep-deprived new parents. 

On Sunday, Oct. 26, Lenee shared a heartfelt video of the dreaded midnight shift that many new parents face.

Clearly making lemonade out of lemons, Hunter and his wife added a fun twist to their newborn's sleepless nights - a full on dance party. 

Lenee captioned the post shared to TikTok, "POV: (point of view) it's midnight and we both have been up all day and are so tired but our baby wanted to be up, so music and dance party instead!" 

"I thank you Jesus for always being a provider and a healer❤️. With you, we lack nothing," she added, alongside a text overlay on the video that read, "My definition of rich." 

The NFL WAG included a wholesome clip capturing the moment, wearing a white robe as she held their newborn son close while Hunter danced happily behind her. 

In true Hunter fashion, the NFL rookie took his dad duties seriously, offering his wife plenty of laughs as he joined her for a late night dance-off despite their lack of sleep.

Inside Travis Hunter's unforgettable rookie year 

There's no question that this has been one of the most memorable years in Hunter's life. The 22-year-old Colorado Buffaloes standout was drafted as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, signed with the Jags, got married, and welcomed his first child. 

Despite all of the big changes, he seems to be managing his busy life like a champ. 

During his seventh game in the league last week, the Jags star scored his first touchdown in a game against the Chargers on foreign soil at Wembley Stadium in London. After the play, the NFL rookie said he plans on giving his first TD ball to his newborn son.
