LSU starting quarterback Jayden Daniels announced on social media Thursday afternoon that he will be returning to the team next year for the 2023 season.

Daniels passed for 2,774 yards, with 16 touchdowns and three interceptions this past season. He also rushed for 818 yards and 11 touchdowns.

His announcement is a huge boost to LSU's offense, which returns the entire offensive line and most of its receivers in 2023.

Not a fan....he does enough to get a win but he is not a team player. Seems he wants the spotlight on himself instead of his teammates. "I see KB open right there, but I'm gonna run it and see what I get"

I am happy to have JD coming back, he adds depth to the QB room... but all I'm going to say is that there is not a player on this earth that can run faster than a ball in the air.

There will be an open competition for the job as starting quarterback this spring. I hope, for the sake of ALL their careers, the the QB's and WR's/TE's take a page out of the 2018 offseason and have their own version of the Summer of 10,000 catches.
That's what made our offense so potent that GOAT 2019 season. Not only were the QBs and receivers on the same page, they had an almost telepathic connection that only comes from thousands of reps.
If any of our guys show that kind of commitment to honing their craft, we could see this offense take that same kind of leap.

He will never be a “Sunday player” at QB unless he actually THROWS THE FREAKING FOOTBALL”. I screamed this more than any other time I can remember in the past 60 years.

Great news for LSU. With AL, GA, TN, FL, and others breaking-in new QB’s it will give the Tigers a reliable/proven option! Should Nuss or Howard beat him out, we’ll still have a QB with 40+ starts… that’s an huge advantage over those aforementioned programs. Nuss has averaged approximately a turnover/quarter of play and Howard has yet to play a meaningful down at this level so, I would expect Daniels to be the assumed starter. Either way, our QB room is loaded through our 2024 Recruiting class – Go Tigers!!

Coincidence he announced this the day after Early Signing Day?

A boost? Is it though? He's great running the ball, passing? Not so much. We need a PASSER with all of these sfud WRs

Who would’ve thought that a junior quarterback planning to return for his senior year would be a big news story?
