Travis Burgess' senior season of high school football has abruptly come to an end.

The UNC football commit, regarded as one of the top quarterback prospects in the Class of 2026, announced on social media early on Thursday morning that he will miss the rest of the 2025 season due to injury. He suffered the injury last Friday in Grayson's second game of the season.
