As LSU looks to bounce back from a disappointing loss against Alabama when it returns home to host a 5-4 Florida team this weekend, all eyes are on the health of quarterback [autotag]Jayden Daniels[/autotag].
Daniels exited the Alabama game after taking a hard hit to the head. Though he briefly returned to action, he was placed in concussion protocol and ruled out for the remainder of the game.
[autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] was noncommittal on Monday about whether Daniels will suit up on Saturday, though he said the passer has made progress.
“I would consider him day-to-day, he’s going through the injury protocol and he’s made improvements,” Kelly said. “But this is a process that we’ll just have to see how it plays out from day-to-day but I can tell you he’s made some progress.”
If Daniels is not able to go, backup [autotag]Garrett Nussmeier[/autotag] will make his first start of the season against Florida.
