Although Daniels is listed as a redshirt junior, he plans to participate in Senior Day for Kansas, which likely means his career with the Jayhawks is coming to an end.

While participation in Senior Day does not guarantee a player will leave the program, more often than not that day serves as the final home honor for the veteran crop of athletes.

Daniels has bounced back in a big way in 2024 after eight interceptions through the first five weeks of action. Since Kansas’ 38-27 loss to TCU, Daniels has taken much better care of the football with an 8-2 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He is also approaching the 2,000 yards mark, with 145 completions for 1,985 yards on the year.

Kansas’ Senior Day happens to fall on one of the biggest games of the season for the Jayhawks by Lance Leipold group is set to clash with Deion Sanders and the 16th-ranked Colorado Buffaloes at Arrowhead Stadium. Despite losing five of their first six games, Kansas is now two wins away from reaching a bowl game after consecutive Top 25 wins.

Daniels and the Jayhawks kick off their Week 13 matchup against Colorado on Saturday, November 23 at 2:30 PM CT.
