The Gophers are becoming regulars at the Senior Bowl.

The Gophers will be represented at Saturday's Senior Bowl for the fourth straight year.

Safety Damarius Travis was a midweek roster addition to the Senior Bowl's South team. Travis made 13 of his career 23 starts last fall as a senior in the Gophers' 21st-ranked defense. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound safety finished his final year with a career-best mark in tackles (83), including four for a loss and two interceptions.

Travis is the fifth ex-Gophers player to take part in the Senior Bowl in the last four years, joining KJ Maye, Eric Murray, David Cobb and Ra'Shede Hageman.
