Gators preparing for both Jayden Daniels and Garrett Nussmeier in week 11

The Florida Gators are preparing for two quarterbacks in their week 11 matchup against LSU as starting QB Jayden Daniels suffered a head injury early in the 4th quarter against Alabama a week ago.

Daniels has completed 72.1% of his passes for 2,792 yards, 27 touchdowns, and four interceptions through nine games. The dual threat QB has also added 684 rushing yards and six touchdowns on the ground, cementing himself as a top candidate for the 2023 Heisman Trophy.

“He worked out this morning and it appears as though that workout went well, which is the last stage before he’s cleared for non-contact practice, so we’re expecting him to practice today,” LSU Head Coach Brian Kelly said on Wednesday morning.
