Following the play, Travis immediately signaled over to the sideline for assistance. He stayed down for a few minutes while Norvell and other members of the staff watched over the scene. Travis was assisted to the locker room by Florida State's medical staff, walking gingerly.
Prior to the injury, the redshirt junior opened the game 13/17 for 148 yards with two touchdowns and an interception. Redshirt sophomore Tate Rodemaker replaced Travis and is 1/3 for -6 yards and a pick at the break.
Earlier in the second quarter, starting defensive end Jared Verse was injured on a first-down play where it appeared that linebacker Kalen DeLoach made contact with his lower left leg while making a tackle.
Verse walked to the sideline gingerly under his own power. He went into the medical tent and stayed on the sideline with a brace on his leg before exiting for the locker room prior to the conclusion of the first half.
UPDATE 9:50 PM: ESPN announces that Travis and Verse are OUT for the remainder of the game. Both players are now in street clothes. Travis is on crutches with a boot on his left foot.
