Burns scored his first try for the club in Round 6 against the New Zealand Warriors with the Panthers winning 40–12. Burns played 19 games for the Panthers in 2010 scoring 4 times. Burns alongside Kevin Kingston both signed extensions with the Panthers until the 2013 season.[4]

He currently plays for Hull KR, and is their regular kicker, having scored 48 goals in 14 appearances during the 2014 season.[5]

In September 2014 Travis Burns signed a 3-year contract to play for St Helens RLFC. St Helens paid in the region of £60,000 to secure his services from Hull KR. He will team up with ex Penrith Panthers team mate Luke Walsh for 2015 season at St Helens.
