Jets hoping Jordan Travis can grow, learn under Aaron Rodgers: ‘ball of clay’
NY Post
The Jets adhered so strictly to the Green Bay Model of Quarterback Development that they even drafted another Jordan to learn underneath Aaron Rodgers.
To be fair, it’s more coincidence than anything else that Jordan Travis — a fifth-round pick by the Jets in last week’s draft — shares the same first name as Jordan Love, who was brilliant for the Packers last season after spending his first three years behind Rodgers on their bench.
Travis — who will begin as a third-stringer with time to recover from a gruesome injury — imagines in his future a day of inheriting the reins from Rodgers, too.
“I do think about that a lot,” Travis said Saturday after rookie minicamp concluded, “but right now I’m just focused on where my feet are — getting healthy, getting everybody around me better, being a great teammate.”
But does he believe that he can start in this league?
“100 percent,” Travis said confidently.
