“I’m ready to lead the Kansas Jayhawks into the 2025 season and fully focused on becoming the best QB possible,” the post continued. “I’m staying to finish what we’ve started, continue building, and to give back to the fans who’ve given us everything.”
In his five years in Lawrence, Daniels has thrown for 6,751 yards and 45 touchdowns. Daniels threw for 2,454 yards and 14 touchdowns with 447 rushing yards and six touchdowns this season.
Daniels started all 12 games for the Jayhawks after two injury-riddled seasons. Daniels hurt his shoulder and missed half of Kansas’ breakout season in 2022, then had a back injury that limited him to three games last season.
