Caleb Williams’ Pro Day was highly anticipated, as he is projected to be the number-one overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. He did not disappoint.

Caleb Williams and a possible future teammate Keenan Allen
Keenan Allen came through USC to show support for Caleb. A special bond already seems to have formed.

I’m sure these two are going to connect a lot more with the Chicago Bears this season.

Keenan also got in front of Caleb’s father, Carl. It’s always good to meet the parents of your future quarterback.

Caleb Williams Throws
Caleb Williams is a high-ranked prospect because of his arm talent. He is known to make every type of throw at any throwing platform. Many draft analysts question not whether he can make spectacular throws but whether he can follow the script of a called offense. He needs to make regular throws, not just highlight reel throws.
Caleb put that on display today.

After he hits the missle of a pass to Rice, he punts the ball about 35 yards on a whim—he is a multi-talented athlete.

Caleb Williams with @wyche89 on #NFLPlus on Keenan Allen, whom he’s known a while and was at USC pro day: “He’s at the #Bears for a 4th-round pick, which is crazy. He had his best year last year. He’s a beast. Good guy. Awesome dude to be around and he can give you a lot of…

Caleb saying all the right things about the possibility of being a Bear.
It is safe to say the Bears are impressed with Williams. Chicago had over 7 representatives there watching the performance. It is rumored that the Bears executives took Caleb and possibly his father out the night before for dinner and then celebrated with Caleb with a traditional “dap up.”

Other teams were represented well at USC’s Pro Day, but the Chicago Bears are making it known that they fully support Caleb. And why wouldn’t they? After trading Justin Fields and holding the number one overall pick, there is no need to be secret about your intentions. Caleb’s future looks likely to end up in Chicago.
