JT Daniels, a sophomore at the University of Georgia, has been selected as the Manning Award Quarterback of the Week. He earns the honor over seven other Manning Award Stars of the Week in the Allstate Sugar Bowl’s Facebook contest.
Daniels, a transfer from USC, made his Georgia debut after missing the first six games recovering from injury. He completed 28-of-38 passes for career-highs of 401 yards and four touchdowns as the Bulldogs held off Mississippi State, 31-24. He became the first Bulldog since Aaron Murray in 2013 to throw for more than 400 yards in a game.
