Caleb Williams refuses to provide medicals after skipping the NFL Combine
Several top QBs like Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, and Caleb Williams refused to be a part of the NFL Combine throws this year, with Williams being the only player to not provide his medicals. He later clarified his stand on his status by saying, “I played around 30-something games, I believe. Go ahead and go watch real-live ball of me, and see how I am as a competitor.” Since the Bears are yet to trade away Justin Fields, it will affect their decision-making.
