Steps to improve his game for Kansas Football

Kansas football quarterback Jalon Daniels has struggled a lot this season.

Once a Heisman favorite, his prospects have dimmed after the Jayhawks’ disappointing 1-4 start. Compounding the problem is offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes’ poor performance, which reflects Daniels’ own decision-making on the field.

Despite these challenges, Daniels has undeniable talent and the tools to succeed. Here’s what he needs to focus on to turn things around this Saturday against the Sun Devils in Tempe.

One of the most effective ways to help Daniels find his rhythm is to simplify the offensive scheme.

By focusing on quick, high percentage shots, the coaching staff can help him gain confidence early in the game. Using short to intermediate routes allows Daniels to find a groove without the pressure of having to make difficult throws under duress.

The Jayhawks have a talented receiving corps and it’s crucial for Daniels to lean on reliable targets like Lawrence Arnold and Luke Grimm.

Both wide receivers have the ability to stretch the field but also excel on short-to-intermediate routes, making them perfect options for Daniels looking to build momentum.

Creating chemistry between Arnold and Grimm will be crucial. Daniels should look to get her involved early and use her speed and route-running ability to create mismatches against opposing defenses.

With consistent targets in the passing game, Daniels will gain the confidence needed to make bigger plays down the line.

To improve his game, Daniels will need to focus on limiting mistakes, particularly the costly interceptions that plagued him last season.

It will be crucial to maintain a disciplined approach to your decision-making.

This includes accurately reading the defense, recognizing coverages and knowing when to throw the ball away rather than forcing a pass into a tight window.
