SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. — LSU quarterback and Heisman trophy winner Jayden Daniels was honored by his former high school Saturday as they renamed the stadium after him.
According to our partners at WBRZ, Daniels' alma mater, Cajon High School, also celebrated Daniels with a custom letterman jacket, decorated with a Heisman trophy patch during a ceremony.
Daniels was awarded the 2023 Heisman Trophy during a ceremony held at Lincoln Center in New York on Saturday, Dec. 9 last year.
He is the third LSU Tiger to win the Heisman Trophy behind fellow quarterback Joe Burrow in 2019 and running back Billy Cannon in 1959.
