Grayson QB Travis Burgess out for the season

Grayson 4-star senior quarterback Travis Burgess has announced via social media that he will miss the remainder of the 2025 high school football season due to an injury sustained in last weeks matchup against Rabun Gap.

The senior has been committed to continue his football career at the University of North Carolina since May. Additionally, Burgess was on Score Atlanta's preseason Mr. Georgia watchlist.

Here is the statement Burgess provided via Twitter (X):

“I want to thank everyone for the thoughts, prayers, calls, and messages— it truly means the world to me. A special thanks to my family, my coaches, my teammates, the Grayson community, and the University of North Carolina coaches, players, and fans for their encouragement and support. Playing under the Friday night lights at Grayson these past two years has been the experience of a lifetime. Unfortunately, due to the injury I suffered last Friday, I won’t be able to finish out the season with my brothers on the field. It has been a blessing to represent Grayson, play in front of such amazing fans, and be coached by some of the best. This is just the start of my journey. I look forward to recovery, and I’m excited for the next chapter at UNC. Thank you again for all the love and support!”

This season, Burgess accounted for 329 yards through the air on a 52% completion percentage, throwing three touchdowns while also accumulating 101 yards on the ground on 11 carries with a rushing touchdown to go with it.

Grayson will take on a high profile out-of-state opponent this week as Thompson (AL) crosses state lines to take on the Rams at Grayson Ram Stadium.
