Jets' Jordan Travis Retires After Rehab Setback

Jordan Travis, former Florida State star and New York Jets quarterback, has retired from football at age 24 after being medically advised due to complications from a severe leg injury suffered in November 2023. Travis, a 2024 fifth-round draft pick, never played a professional game and spent his rookie season rehabbing on the Jets’ non-football injury list. His agent later claimed the Jets' efforts to expedite his rehabilitation may have contributed to setbacks in his recovery. Travis' injury not only ended his college career but also played a role in Florida State's exclusion from the College Football Playoff despite an undefeated season. His departure leaves the Jets with Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Adrian Martinez as their remaining quarterbacks. The Jets organization and football community have praised Travis’ resilience and work ethic.
