Jordan Travis confirmed in a statement released by FSU Football on Monday morning that the serious injury he sustained Saturday night is season-ending.
“I truly cannot thank everyone enough for the many thoughts, prayers and messages sent my way,” Travis wrote in a statement on Twitter. “I was overwhelmed by the support from my teammates, coaches, the Florida State community and those around the world. Although the injury I sustained on November 18, 2023 marks the end of my Seminole playing career, the great memories created here at FSU will never fade. Being a quarterback here at Florida State University is a dream come true. I am humbled, honored and forever grateful. The journey that this team has embarked on is not yet over as all of our goals are still ahead of us. I look forward to being alongside my brothers every day as we continue our attack. We are all we have, we are all we need. The job is not yet completed. Come on, Noles!”
Travis’ left leg was put in the air and he was carted off the field late in the first quarter after a run up the middle. He posted updates from his Instagram account on Sunday, including some that showed a number of Seminoles teammates around him in his hospital room.
The redshirt senior blossomed into an all-around quarterback like few could have imagined when he made his Boston College debut in November 2019, weaving through defenses for two long touchdown runs.
Travis finished his FSU career with 8,715 passing yards, 66 touchdowns and 20 interceptions. He is the program’s all-time leader in offensive yards and ranks in the top five of FSU’s all-time stats in most major categories, from completions to touchdown passes to wins by a quarterback.
The CFP No. 4 Seminoles (11-0) will face Florida (5-6) on Saturday at 7 p.m. (ESPN). FSU will turn to Tate Rodemaker at quarterback, with freshman Brock Glenn as the likely replacement.
FSU coach Mike Norvell will speak to the media at 11:30 a.m. Monday
