Former Iowa State offensive lineman Jalen Travis was selected in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts Saturday.
Travis transferred to Iowa State from Princeton for his final year of college football and helped the Cyclones to an 11-3 finish, a Big 12 championship game berth and a Pop-Tarts Bowl win.
He becomes the first Iowa State offensive lineman to be drafted since Carter Bykowski (2013).
Travis finished as an All-Big 12 honorable mention player, and becomes the fourth Cyclone drafted in the 2025 draft, tying the program record in the modern era.
