LSU Quarterback Jayden Daniels Wins Heisman Trophy
LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels has won the Heisman Trophy, becoming the first player since 2016 to win this prestigious award as part of a team that did not play for a conference championship. Transfered from Arizona State to LSU in 2022, Daniels received 503 first-place votes and 2,029 points. He is the fifth quarterback in the last seven seasons to win the Heisman after transferring, and the third Heisman winner from LSU. Daniels, 23, led the best offense in the country, ending the regular season with 3,812 yards passing and 1,134 yards rushing and 50 total touchdowns in 12 games. His performance surpassed that of Louisville’s Lamar Jackson, the last player to win the Heisman on a team that lost three games.
