LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels has won the 2023 Heisman Trophy. Daniels was announced as the award’s recipient Saturday night after totaling 50 touchdowns and nearly 5,000 total yards during a standout senior season.
Daniels is the first true dual-threat QB to win the prestigious award since Kyler Murray won in 2018, and he joins Joe Burrow as one of two LSU quarterbacks to joint the Heisman fraternity.
In one of the more impressive stats of the Heisman voting is the appearance of Missouri RB Cody Schrader. Schrader, voted best RB in the SEC, tallied 1,499 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns. He helped the Tigers finished 10-2 in the regular season, reach the No. 9 spot in the College Football Playoff’s final rankings, and they will appear in a Dec. 29 Cotton Bowl against No. 7 Ohio State.
