Florida State QB Jordan Travis's Devastating Injury Sends Shockwaves Through College Football

Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis suffered a serious leg injury during a game against North Alabama when a defender executed a hip-drop tackle, similar to the one that caused a season-ending ankle injury to Ravens tight end Mark Andrews. The technique, which involves grabbing the player around the waist and dropping to the ground, has raised concerns about player safety. The NFL considered banning it last year but did not. Finding an alternative way to bring down a trailing ball carrier without risking injury remains a challenge.
