Drew Brees will be cheering on his fellow Louisiana QB at tonight’s Heisman Trophy ceremony.
Taking to Instagram on Saturday, the legendary Saints quarterback shouted out LSU’s Jayden Daniels on the special honor of being a finalist.
“Jayden! Man – what an accomplishment,” Brees began. “Congrats on being a Heisman finalist tonight. Stay true to yourself and sky’s the limit! Congrats from your Walk-On’s family!”
Fans hopped in the comments on the future Hall of Famer’s post.
“I think Drew wants him in New Orleans,” a user laughed.
“If Jayden doesnt win, I have lost hope in this world,” another admitted.
“Can u imagine Jayden running our offense?” a Saints fan asked.
“JD 5 IS ELITE!!! Love you drew.”
“Drew please come back as head coach & have the Saints draft Jayden,” another user begged.
“Teach him well,” another person said.
The Heisman Trophy will be handed out tonight at 8 PM ET. Daniels is a finalist alongside Ohio State’s Marvin Harrison Jr., Oregon’s Bo Nix and Washington’s Michael Penix Jr.
