Olivia Dunne celebrates Jayden Daniels’ Heisman Trophy win with a sweet tribute to LSU’s QB legacy - "It's always been the Tigers"

LSU Tigers QB Jayden Daniels emerged as the 2023 Heisman winner. Daniels beat Washington's Michael Penix Jr, Oregon's Bo Nix and Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr. to win the Heisman, following in the footsteps of Joe Borrow in 2020.

As Daniels celebrated the milestone, congratulations poured in from fellow athletes, including LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne. Dunne shared a story on Instagram with Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels edited together along with the Heisman trophy in their hands. The gymnast accompanied the post with the caption:

Daniels became the first Heisman winner since 2016 to be part of a team that did not partake in the conference championship game. He received an impressive 503 first-place votes and 2,029 points while Penix Jr. came in as the runner-up with 292 first-place votes and 1,701 points.

This season, Daniels compiled an impressive 3,812 passing yards and 40 TD passes with 1,134 rushing yards and 10 TDs.

What's next for Jayden Daniels?

Daniels has played for five seasons in college football. He initially began his journey with Arizona State before transferring to LSU last season and being named the starting QB. Thus, the next logical step for him will be to prepare for the 2024 NFL Draft.

However, he still has the chance to gear up one last time for the LSU Tigers as they face Wisconsin in the ReliaQuest Bowl. But it's unlikely that Jayden Daniels will risk injuries to participate in a bowl game with not a lot of importance.

After winning the Heisman, the QB opened up about his plans for the upcoming days. Notably, he did not mention the possibility of playing in the ReliaQuest Bowl.

"I'm just trying to enjoy the moment here with these guys and their family and enjoy what we're doing. After all this is done, I'll probably just sit down with my family and go from there."

LSU is scheduled to face Wisconsin in the bowl game on Jan. 1, 2024.
