Former LSU quarterback and 2023 Heisman winner [autotag]Jayden Daniels[/autotag] has become a legend on the Bayou.
The second transfer quarterback to win a Heisman for the Tigers in five years, Daniels delivered one of the most prolific individual seasons in recent memory this fall and is now off to the NFL, where he’s a projected top-five draft pick.
In the meantime, however, the folks in New Orleans are showing Daniels some love. At the annual Krewe of Bacchus parade, which has been held on the Sunday evening before Mardi Gras nearly every year since 1969, Daniels was honored by LSU fans with a custom float.
