Several people congratulated Travis for his feats including actor Henry Winkler, who congratulated him in a post on X.
"And it wasn't just the Fonz. We had a bunch of your teammates weighing in," Jason shared on New Heights. "Rashee Rice said, you know, 'I've seen a lot of spark out of Trav. It's never really gone. He's a very patient player.' "
Travis attributed part of his success to his team, who he said has been hitting their stride and bringing renewed energy to the field.
"The energy in the building feels a lot more electric. Like, it feels like we're moving at a pace that we weren't moving at last year," he explained.. "And yeah, it's honestly because we're scoring touchdowns."
"I think when everybody's getting a piece of the pie like this, I mean, 'Mhmm,' " he added.

Following his team's 28-7 Monday Night Football win against the Commanders, Travis told Scott Van Pelt on SportsCenter that he was the "old lucky dog still able to do this thing."
The football player, who even referenced his fiancée Taylor Swift's "The Fate of Ophelia" dance and worked the song's choreography into his end zone celebration, added to Pelt that he liked to "fill people with happiness and excitement."
He added, "And at the same time bring some swagger, bring some excitement, bring some fun to work."
Kelce's touchdown celebration saw him give a sweet nod to his fiancée Swift, 35, as he recreated the choreography from the No. 1 track's music video and looked up to the suite where the pop superstar was sitting with pal Brittany Mahomes, wife of quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
