Travis was in the midst of a stellar season for the Seminals when he suffered a gruesome leg injury against North Alabama that ended his collegiate football career and played a big role in Florida State missing out on the College Football Playoffs.

Travis had thrown for 2,756 passing yards and 20 touchdowns in 2023 and his leg is said to be better now.
