\nFrank Coyle\/ Voter<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Heisman trust announced during the ESPN televised that LSU\u2019s Jayden Daniels is the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner. QB Daniels won the award off an outstanding 2023 season. The dual threat athlete put together a thrilling season of highlights vs top competition with both impact as a passer and runner. He is the 5th transfer in the past 7 years to win the Heisman award, following QBs, Caleb Williams, Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray and Joe Burrow. All three QBs this year, Daniels, Nix and Penix were transfer players in recent years with only WR Marvin Harrison among finalists a career one school player.\u00a0 This year\u2019s voting marked the 12th time in the last 14 years that a QB won the Heisman award. Daniels is the first player since 2016 to win the Heisman award who did not play for a conference championship.<\/p>\n

Daniels received 503 first-place votes and 2,029 total points to beat out two fellow transfer QBs in Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. (292 first place, 1,701 total) and Oregon ‘s Bo Nix (51 first place, 885 total), as well as Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (20 first place, 352 total) in a ceremony held at Lincoln Center in New York City.
