After a historic season, LSU Tigers quarterback Jayden Daniels is the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner.

Daniels becomes the third ever Heisman winner from LSU, joining Joe Burrow (2019) and Billy Cannon (1959), and second Tigers quarterback all-time. He had 3,500 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards this season, becoming the first SEC player to do so since Johnny Manziel in 2012.

The win also makes Daniels the second California native to earn the Heisman award in the last three years -- Bryce Young won in 2021. Before Young, California native Reggie Bush won the Heisman in 2005.
