LSU Tigers starting quarterback Jayden Daniels has announced that he will return to the team next season. The starting quarterback transferred the last offseason from the Arizona State Sun Devils and won the starting job before the start of the season. He led the team to a season that many did not expect including an overtime win over the Alabama Crimson Tide. Daniels was hurt in the team’s matchup against the Georgia Bulldogs in the 2022 SEC Championship. He joins star wide receiver Kayshon Boutte who also announced his return for the 2023 college football season.

This season with the LSU Tigers, Jayden Daniels completed 254 passes for 2,774 yards, 16 touchdowns, and three interceptions on 371 attempts. He also rushed the ball 180 times for 818 yards and 11 touchdowns on the season. LSU finished with an overall record of 9-4 and an SEC record of 6-2, winning the SEC West. The team will finish the season against the Purdue Boilermakers on January 2nd in the Cheez-it Citrus Bowl. Because of the injury, it is unclear if Daniels will play in that game, but he does have more time to recover before the game. The goal next season is clear for LSU, win a National Championship.
