Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 38 → 29). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 51, 36th of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 28 Travis is in his prime years, and a market index of 14.2 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Travis missed 11 games through injury and 1 suspension (calf, inactive) out of roughly 46 this season. The 28 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Derby finished 8th of 24 · an upper-table side
3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (8th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 73.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 51.2, Travis carries the 36th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 65. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
