NY Jets reveal multiple ‘setbacks’ in alarming Jordan Travis injury update
Jordan Travis isn’t returning anytime soon.
The NY Jets didn’t draft Jordan Travis with the expectation that he would play in his rookie season. The former Florida State star suffered a serious leg injury in late 2023 that ended his college career prematurely, and the Jets were aware that his recovery would be a work in progress.
Still, there was initially some hope that Travis would be ready for the start of training camp. The Jets hoped that Travis would be able to get some reps in this summer ahead of what was supposed to be a redshirt year for the rookie QB.
Instead, Travis missed the entire summer and has yet to return to practice. Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich was asked about Travis’ status when speaking to reporters on Wednesday, and the update was not an encouraging one.
Ulbrich revealed that Travis had suffered multiple “setbacks” in his rehab process and that he had not progressed as the team would have hoped. The Jets do not expect Travis to return to practice at any point this season.
Jordan Travis injury update is bad news for the NY Jets
The Jets always expected the 2024 season to be a redshirt year for the former Heisman finalist. Travis was widely seen as a potential Day 2 pick in this past year’s draft before his leg injury ended his college career and tanked his draft stock.
