What’s up with Kansas QB Jalon Daniels? Former KU QB sizes up his epic struggles

The Kansas Jayhawks football team looks to bounce back on Saturday against TCU after another tough loss to West Virginia last week.

KU has lost three straight games and hopes to end its losing streak Saturday against the Horned Frogs at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City (ESPN+).

For Kansas (1-3, 0-1 Big 12), getting quarterback Jalon Daniels back to his previous level of play is very important. Daniels has nine turnovers in four games.

In this week’s Rock Chalk Film Room, KU beat writer Shreyas Laddha and former Jayhawks quarterback Carter Stanley discuss why Daniels hasn’t played up to his usual standard.

Topics include his overall mechanics; how to make his life easier while he’s struggling; and what’s different for him this season compared to previous ones.

Check out this week’s film room.
