It's nothing. It's no different than tapping a ball in the air. There's no player control, so that alone means that it isn't traveling.

A player must be holding the ball to travel with 2 exceptions.

1- Throwing a pass to one's self, as described in 4.15.4e

2- Gaining player control while part of the body, other than the hand or knee is touching the floor, placing the ball on the floor, getting up and picking it up as described in 4.43.5b.
