Jayden Daniels vs LSU Jersey Rules | NFL News

Jayden Daniels is in a fiery standoff with LSU over his name, image, and likeness — specifically, the use of his retired jersey number, No. 5. After LSU handed the number to another player, Daniels’ legal team demanded they stop using it, citing past NIL authorization. Meanwhile, fellow Heisman winner Joe Burrow weighed in, revealing LSU also promised not to reuse his iconic No. 9 — worn during his two stellar seasons before heading to the NFL. With Daniels now suiting up for the Commanders and Burrow with the Bengals, LSU’s strict jersey-retirement policy — requiring five years and elite honors like the Heisman — remains firmly in place, as the school declines to comment further on this brewing NIL drama.
