Travis was born in West Palm Beach, Florida, and attended Palm Beach Central High School. After his Sophomore year, he transferred to The Benjamin School where he graduated in 2018. Coming out of high school he was ranked No. 24 dual-threat quarterback by 247Sports.[1][2] His brother Devon Travis played baseball at Florida State under Mike Martin.
Travis began his college career committing to the Louisville Cardinals over the Baylor Bears.[3] Playing just 3 games, he completed 4-of-14 passing attempts and gained 40 yards rushing.[4] In November 2018, Travis announced he would be transferring.[5]
On December 22, 2018, Travis announced he would be transferring to Florida State.[6][7] He spent five seasons with the Florida State Seminoles,[8] leading the team to ten win seasons as a redshirt junior and senior. He transferred to FSU in 2019 under head coach Willie Taggart but did not take the field until Taggart was fired.[9] During his time as a Seminole, Travis became the first Florida State starting quarterback to win three games against rival Miami.[10] In his senior season, Travis was named one of 20 semifinalists for the Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award.[10]
On November 18, 2023, Travis experienced a serious leg injury against North Alabama.[11] He was fighting for extra yards, but a defender used a controversial hip-drop tackle on Travis's left leg causing his ankle to be twisted awkwardly. An air cast was placed on his leg and he was carted off. On November 20, Travis announced that the injury was season-ending and would also end his college football career.[12] Travis went on to finish fifth in Heisman Trophy voting behind Marvin Harrison Jr., Bo Nix, Michael Penix Jr., and eventual winner Jayden Daniels.[13] Due in part to Travis' absence, Florida State became the first undefeated Power Five conference champion left out of the College Football Playoff. The CFP Selection Committee factors player availability into its selections, and committee chairman Boo Corrigan said the Seminoles were "a different team" without Travis. This decision was met with much controversy.[14]
