Quarterback prospect and projected first-overall pick Caleb Williams has spoken to the press at the NFL Scouting Combine.
The 22-year-old answered questions on many topics, including the comparisons to Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan.
Jordan revived the Bulls and led them to six NBA Championships. Chicagoans will hope that Williams has the potential to do something similar.
When asked about the comparison, Williams said, "I'd say, anywhere I go, that's my standard. I don't play for fame or money. I want to go out there and win as many games as possible. If I can be my best, I can reach certain points like that."
Furthermore, the USC quarterback confirmed his excitement at playing for the Bears. Williams said, "They got a good defense. They got good players on offense. It's an exciting situation."
Williams also doubled down on his decision not to participate in the combine's on-field drills, saying, "I didn't feel the need to go out and throw. I played about 30-something games, I believe. Go watch the real, live ball with me and see how I am as a competitor."
Lastly, Williams did confirm that he will conduct medical exams and submit medical records to select teams. Williams will visit a handful of teams before the NFL Draft and confirm all details then.
