LSU Football will bring quarterback Jayden Daniels, running back Josh Williams and defensive lineman Mekhi Wingo to SEC Media Days next week, the team announced Monday.

Last season in 14 games for LSU, Daniels proved to be one of the better dual-threat quarterbacks in college football. The Tigers signal caller completed 68.6 percent of his passes for 2,913 yards, 17 touchdowns, and three interceptions. Daniels also had 885 rushing yards, 11 rushing touchdowns, and 1 receiving touchdown.

A former walk-on, Williams ended the year with 97 carries for 532 rushing yards and six touchdowns in 11 games to lead all Tiger running backs.

In his first season at LSU after transferring in from Missouri, Wingo made 13 starts over 14 games, making 47 tackles, six tackles for loss, three sacks, four pass breakups, five quarterback hurries, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

Daniels sees LSU taking next step in 2023

In Brian Kelly’s first season, LSU won the SEC West. With Daniels coming in as a transfer to lead the offense, he was still adjusting. Now entering Year 2 in Mike Denbrock’s system, he’s ready for the country to see LSU as a true National Championship contender.

“Really, just dominating. Going out there and just showing on teams, showing people around the world, that LSU is back on the map,” said Daniels. “Going out there for me, just dominating, going out there and just having fun again.

“Last year, towards the end of the season, started seeing that progression… going back out there and having fun and just playing football. That’s the game I’ve been playing since I was a young kid. And those are times you weren’t really thinking. You were just going out there playing football. So for me, it’s just going out there showing that next progression and showing the elite level, elite traits of domination.”
