The SEC released its coaches All-SEC team on Tuesday, and it is loaded with talented players from across the conference. LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels earned first-team honors at quarterback after a sensational season that has him on the brink of winning the Heisman Trophy. Daniels had 3,812 yards passing, 1,134 yards rushing and accounted for 50 touchdowns (40 passing, 10 rushing) for the Tigers. 

SEC champion Alabama led all teams by landing eight players on the first-team unit, including linebacker Dallas Turner, defensive back Kool-Aid McKinstry and offensive lineman JC Latham. The Crimson Tide have 10 players across both teams, one behind SEC East champion Georgia which has 11. 

Missouri running back Cody Schrader was named to the first-team squad at running back. The sixth-year senior was awarded the Bursworth Trophy after the season which is given to the best walk-on or former walk-on in the country.
