LSU and Florida State squared off on Sunday night in an opening weekend matchup between two preseason top-10 teams. In the first half of what was already a fun watch, LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels made a fateful decision that did not end well for the 2024 NFL draft prospect.
Daniels, who is a good runner, decided to try and hurdle over the action in the middle of the field. He didn’t count on Florida State LB Tatum Bethune meeting him in midair with a hit that looked straight out of WWE wrestling.
Folk on X (formerly Twitter) had a lot of fun at Daniels’ painful expense.
