Florida State's QB Situation: From Tragic Tackle to Touchdown in the NFL Draft
FSU fans, gather 'round the virtual campfire and let's roast some... well, not marshmallows exactly. We're here to talk about the saga of our quarterback, Jordan Travis, and his unfortunate exit from last season's dream run.

The Great Fall of 2023: Undefeated Seminoles Stunned
Remember those glorious days? The Seminoles were soaring high, undefeated, and Travis was channeling his inner Houdini, escaping sacks and leading touchdown drives like a boss. Then, in a cruel twist of fate that would make M. Night Shyamalan jealous, Travis went down with a leg injury during the North Alabama game.
This, my friends, was a fumble of epic proportions. The undefeated season sputtered a bit, and the College Football Playoff dreams remained just that – dreams. But fear not, Seminole faithful, for this story has a (mostly) happy ending!
From Injured Seminole to Drafted Jet: A Phoenix (or Should We Say Falcon?) Rises
While Travis was sidelined, the Seminoles soldiered on, but it wasn't quite the same without their star quarterback. Let's just say the offense wasn't exactly firing on all cylinders. Still, they managed to win a couple more games before bowing out in the ACC Championship and the bowl game.
Tip: Skim once, study twice.
But here's the good news: Travis recovered well, and his NFL dreams weren't sacked! He got picked in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft by the New York Jets. Now, he's looking to lead a different kind of charge – one for the starting quarterback position with the Jets.
So, how long was Travis actually out? Well, considering the season ended in December or January (depending on how far they made it in the playoffs), he was basically out for the rest of the 2023 season.
Important Note: Us mere mortals don't have access to the classified information on the exact nature of his injury. But hey, he's healthy enough to compete for a starting NFL gig, and that's all that matters, right?
QuickTip: Skim the ending to preview key takeaways.
