Jayden Daniels Wins the 2023 Heisman Trophy

That Kid Jayden is a Heisman Trophy winner.

Daniels won the Heisman Saturday night, becoming the third winner in LSU history. Daniels joins Billy Cannon’s win in 1959 and Joe Burrow in 2019. Daniels beat out Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr., Oregon quarterback Bo Nix, and Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr.

A Dream Come True. It’s through faith and hard work.

While Burrow won the 2019 Heisman in a landslide, Daniels won the closest race since 2018 when Kyler Murray beat out Tua Tagovailoa.
