Backup QB takes over after Kansas’ Daniels injured vs TCU

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Jason Bean took over at quarterback to start the second half for Kansas on Saturday after Jalon Daniels left the 19th-ranked Jayhawks’ game against No. 17 TCU with an apparent injury to his right shoulder.

Daniels was hurt as Jamoi Hodge sacked him with 41 seconds left in the first half, and he went to the locker room for treatment on his throwing shoulder. He was on the sideline in street clothes in the second half with his right arm in a sling.

Bean, who started the first 10 games for Kansas last season, was 16 of 24 for 262 yards and four touchdowns with one interception in the 38-31 loss.

Daniels had been the catalyst for the Jayhawks’ surprising 5-0 start. He came into the game fifth in the Big 12 in total offense.

Daniels fumbled at the goal line in the second quarter as the Jayhawks were driving for what would have been the go-ahead touchdown. He was 5 for 10 for 89 yards when he got hurt.
