Jets quarterback Jordan Travis advised the team today that he is retiring from the NFL according to the official website.
Travis suffered a catastrophic ankle injury late in his final season at Florida State in 2023. The Jets took a shot on him in the fifth round of the draft, but Travis suffered a setback in his recovery and did not play as a rookie.
In his statement via the team, Travis said his leg never responded the way he had hoped and the medical staff advised him not to return. It’s a sad ending for a player who had a future in the NFL before his tragic injury.
