WATCH: Florida State Stars Jordan Travis, Trey Benson Featured In Commercial

The two Seminoles are featured in the commercial for Tallahassee Ford alongside former player Johnathan Vickers.

The growing avenue of Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) is opening up all kinds of different opportunities for college athletes around the country. From autograph sessions to custom gummies and other unique ventures, there are no bounds to the limits that players can go to increase their national brand and exposure.

Two of Florida State's most marketable athletes are Heisman candidate Jordan Travis and breakout running back Trey Benson. Following a successful season in 2022, the offensive tandem is looking to kick things up a notch on and off the field this year.

Both players are represented by Just Win Management Group, an agency that works with collegiate and professional athletes. Considering they collaborate between the lines, it only made sense to extend that relationship to a business perspective as well.

Recently, Travis and Benson starred in a commercial together for Tallahassee Ford. The pair signed a deal with the dealership back in March and are scheduled to have other commercials that will be airing throughout the 2023 season. The filming will be handled separately outside of their football activities.

Another face that Florida State fans will recognize in the video is former running back Johnathan Vickers, who is the Top Sales Producer at Tallahassee Ford. Vickers played locally at North Florida Christian before suiting up for the Seminoles from 2014-18.

Travis and Benson are expected to be two of the top players at their respective positions this upcoming season. That's just the beginning of the expectations that are brewing in Tallahassee.

Following a redshirt junior campaign where he completed 226/353 (64%) of his passes for 3,214 yards with 24 touchdowns to five interceptions, all eyes are on Travis as he enters his final season of collegiate eligibility. Travis earned Second-Team All-ACC honors and was named Cheez-It Bowl MVP after recording a program bowl record 468 yards of total offense in 2022. His success will determine how Florida State rises on its path to reach the College Football Playoff.

After transferring in from Oregon, Benson took over the primary role at running back and ran away with the job after former Seminole Treshaun Ward was injured. He finished the season with a career-high 154 carries for 990 yards and nine touchdowns. Benson was named second-team All-ACC and FSU's Offensive Newcomer of the Year.
