Explosive, Efficient, and Still Kansas’ Ceiling-Raiser at QB
Daniels remains one of the Big 12’s most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks, pairing quick-trigger passing with real run-game value and the kind of playmaking that can tilt a game in a handful of snaps. In the early 2025 season, he was highly efficient for Kansas, completing 36 of 45 passes for 456 yards and seven touchdowns with one interception, while adding 65 rushing yards on 11 carries[5]. The big question isn’t talent—it’s durability and consistency, since injuries have interrupted his rise, but when healthy he is a high-upside fit for teams that want an aggressive, improvisational QB who can stress defenses both inside and outside the pocket[1][5].
