Biggest Question
What will Jordan Travis’ summer entail?
The Jets will keep Aaron Rodgers in bubble wrap in August. He’ll get all the work he needs in practice and likely watch most of the preseason action from the sideline. He was excellent throughout OTAs and is a man on a mission. Tyrod Taylor, a dual threat who throws a pretty deep ball, is a consummate professional who provides a steady hand at the backup spot.
Travis, a fifth-round pick from Florida State, is working his way back from an ankle injury he sustained last November that included a fracture and dislocation and stretched ligaments. He couldn’t have asked for a better spot to start his NFL education, learning from Rodgers and Taylor.
“I just think he has a great passion for the game,” said passing game coordinator Todd Downing. “He has a really cool demeanor, this guy is unflappable. Really steady eddie type personality, he talks the game with ease. He’s a ball of clay because there were limits to what he’s asked to do at Florida State. I think we’ll be able to see that grow and expand, so I’m excited about that and just a really great person to be around. He has a hunger for knowledge, he likes to know the reason why, all those things fit what we’re looking for in a quarterback.”
Travis is a long-term investment who won’t be rushed in his recovery.
“It’s a dream come true at the end of the day,” he said of joining the Jets. “It’s an opportunity for me to get better, that’s what I look at every single thing as. God has a plan for me. Every day that I wake up, I just got to be the best person I can be, best teammate I can be. I just want to be the best I can be in everything I do.”
