An NFL writer has listed the New York Jets as a top potential landing spot for one of the big-named quarterback prospects in the 2024 NFL Draft.
The New York Jets are set at quarterback for 2024, with Aaron Rodgers set to return from a season-ending Achilles tear. They also signed journeyman Tyrod Taylor as insurance, and 2021 first-round pick Zach Wilson remains on the roster with a trade still yet to come to fruition.
Bleacher Report’s Brent Sobleski offered the best landing spots for several injured 2024 NFL Draft prospects. There, Sobleski listed the Jets as one of the top destinations for Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis:
“Prior to the injury, the 23-year-old didn’t find himself among the top quarterback prospects. He has a smaller frame (6’1”, 200 lbs), middling arm strength, inconsistent processing and shaky pocket presence. But he displayed a quick release, excellent movement skills and ability to create outside of structure.
He could have been an strong possibility in the third- or fourth-round range. He might find himself still waiting a little longer on draft weekend considering the injury…For a franchise with an older or uncertain quarterback situation, without the benefit of a top-five draft pick, Travis could be an intriguing developmental addition.”
Travis suffered a gruesome leg fracture in the Seminoles’ Nov. 18 came against North Alabama, abruptly ending his NCAA college career. Despite finishing a perfect 13-0, the Seminoles were controversially snubbed from the College Football Playoff National Championship.
Instead, the Alabama Crimson Tide snuck in as the No. 4 team. Florida Senator Rick Scott was so outraged over the snubbing of FSU that he demanded answers in a letter sent to the College Football Playoff Selection Committee.

In his final season of college football, Jordan Travis threw for 2,756 yards and 20 touchdowns against only two interceptions.

New York Jets Should Definitely Draft A Quarterback
With Aaron Rodgers turning 41 in December, the upcoming NFL Draft feels like the perfect opportunity for the New York Jets to grab a quarterback of the future.
The New York Jets remain in win-now mode, so they shouldn’t take a quarterback until round three at earliest. If someone like Travis is available in the mid-to-late rounds, Robert Saleh and company should definitely make the move.
Though Rodgers is nearing the end of his playing career, there are several young cornerstones in place, such as Garrett Wilson, Breece Hall, Alijah Vera-Tucker and Sauce Gardner. If the Jets can draft a QB to learn behind Rodgers for at least a year or two, they’ll be set up nicely long-term.
Thomas Markle has been estranged from his youngest daughter Meghan Markle since shortly after her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018.

Thomas Markle is likely "very sad" to be missing out on yet another special family occasion because of his strained relationship with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, a royal expert claimed.
The former television lighting director has been effectively estranged from his youngest daughter since after her wedding to Harry in 2018.
He was due to fly to the UK to walk her down the aisle, but news of an agreement with the paparazzi paired with a heart attack days before the ceremony prevented him from attending.
Markle is not believed to have seen the Duchess of Sussex since – and he has repeatedly complained about never meeting his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
With Lilibet's birthday looming, royal expert Phil Dampier spoke of the distress Mr Markle shares with King Charles as he misses out on yet another special occasion.

Speaking to The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, Mr Dampier said: "It is amazing that she's already three but there is this underlying sadness of course because of the rift that the King is not seeing his grandchildren.
“I think he's only met Lilibet possibly once and Archie only a couple of times and they are seventh and eighth in line to the throne, growing up in California on the West Coast of America with American accents and they just don't see them.”
During her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, the Duchess claimed her father had lied to her about speaking to the British press in what she dubbed a "betrayal" she couldn't "reconcile."
Mr Dampier added: "So that is the underlying sadness and whether they're going to one day heal this rift, we don't know, but at the moment I don't think there's much prospect.”
The royal expert also argued Harry and Meghan face the prospect of intense questioning from Lilibet and Archie when they are older on the lack of contact with both families.
He said: "When they get a bit older, are they going to start asking questions ‘How have we got to this situation’, ‘How is it I don't see my grandparents’, ‘How is it I don't have anything to do with the Royal Family?’
“When they get old, that's probably when the problem is going to start and it's going to be difficult for them.”
Lilibet, who will be turning three on June 4, is believed to have met the King in person only once when her parents brought her and Archie to the UK to celebrate the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022.
While Archie was born in the UK and met his grandfather on multiple occasions, he was barely six months old when he moved to North America with his parents.

In a world captivated by the glitz and glamour of the British royal family, one couple's fairy tale romance has taken a tumultuous turn. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, once hailed as the epitome of modern love, sought refuge in the US three years ago, hoping to escape relentless media scrutiny and forge their own path.
However, recent rumors have cast a shadow over their idyllic existence, suggesting that their dream life may be crumbling beneath the surface.
Whispers of marital discord and potential separation circulate as the world eagerly awaits the truth behind Meghan and Harry's alleged struggles.
Speculation began when the couple failed to commemorate their wedding anniversary with the customary social media post, raising eyebrows and fueling speculation about the state of their relationship. Reports emerged suggesting that Prince Harry had been contemplating alternative living arrangements if a separation were to occur.
Noted biographer Tom Bower claimed that the cracks in the couple's relationship had deepened due to Prince Harry's realization of Meghan's true nature. Bower's allegations sparked controversy and prompted discussions about the couple's motivations and the authenticity of their public personas.
Rumors swirled about the involvement of a mysterious figure known as the "Big Man Behind Meghan and Harry," with speculation pointing to Ty Warner, who allegedly harbored a crush on Meghan and provided them with support during their time of need.

Reports surfaced suggesting that Meghan made an unexplained visit to the San Cedro Ranch, a location where Prince Harry was not scheduled to be present, fueling speculation about possible infidelity or marital strain.These allegations, coupled with rumors of extensive counseling and an imminent divorce, further captivated readers, leaving them eager to uncover the truth behind the couple's troubled relationship.
The unique circumstances surrounding Meghan and Harry's transatlantic move drew attention to the legal ramifications of a potential separation.
California law stipulates that Meghan could secure primary custody of their children, granting Prince Harry visitation rights contingent on his willingness to attend therapy.
This legal nuance added complexity to the alleged marital issues as readers grappled with the potential implications for the couple's future.
As the world eagerly anticipated King Charles's coronation, Meghan Markle's conspicuous absence fueled further speculation about the state of her marriage.
Lady Colin Campbell claimed to have heard that Prince Harry had reached out to five divorce lawyers, suggesting the couple's relationship was teetering on the brink of collapse. These shocking revelations only intensified readers' curiosity, prompting them to delve deeper into the unfolding drama.
Amidst the plethora of rumors and allegations, some commentators theorized that Harry and Meghan themselves may have orchestrated calculated leaks to maintain their relevance in the public eye.
The suggestion that the couple was deliberately fueling speculation added a layer of complexity to the narrative, leaving readers grappling with the possibility that the entire saga might be a carefully constructed performance.
