On Saturday, Florida State Seminoles star quarterback Jordan Travis suffered a devastating leg injury that will end his season. And it sounds like head coach Mike Norvell was crushed on behalf of his star player to see him end his season like that.
During a press conference following the game, Mike Norvell was asked about the injury to Jordan Travis, and he admitted that it was “painful” to see his quarterback go down with such a devastating injury.
“I like to say you block it out. You don’t,” Norvell said. “Coming in, we knew this was Jordan Travis’ last game at Doak Campbell Stadium. I wanted to see him have a special game, special experience, you know. And for anytime somebody gets hurt, it hurt. I mean, it’s painful to see. It’s painful to have to go through.
The injury won’t just impact Travis as he was a key reason why Florida State was in contention for the College Football Playoff this season. Without him, the Seminoles are going to need other players to step up and fill the void, including quarterback Tate Rodemaker, who will be filling in as the team’s starting quarterback for the remainder of the season.
We’ll have to see how Florida State fares without Travis.
