Scouting Dossier

Projection
Jalon Daniels grew up south of Los Angeles. After two years on JV at Lawndale High School, he started to make an impact on varsity as
a junior, accounting for 36 touchdowns and helping lead the program to the 2018 state championship. A three-star recruit, he was the
48th-ranked dual-threat quarterback in the 2020 class. He originally committed to Middle Tennessee, but Kansas entered the mix and
flipped him just before signing day. Daniels’ mobility made him a natural fit in the Jayhawks’ RPO-based scheme, as he showed off both
instincts and the elusiveness to create with the ball in his hands. He became just the second player in school history to surpass 10,000
career yards of total offense.
Daniels has an NFL-quality arm but inconsistent ball placement and decision-making. Though undersized, he has dual-threat talent,
with explosive flashes and the quick processing to maximize what a defense is giving him. The greatest area of concern: He needs to take
better care of the football (19 interceptions and 18 fumbles over his final 24 college games). Overall, Daniels has the ball-handling
skills and intangibles that give him a chance, but his inconsistencies as a passer will be tough to overcome versus
NFL speed.
