In a recent clip from Williams’ NFL Combine interview, he was seen talking about the players who would fit in the description of his ultimate quarterback. While he mentioned several great players, the former QB for the Buccs name came up more than once.

Williams and the conversation with the reporter was him asking Williams his preferences to which most of the answers included Brady, “Whose arm are you putting on the quarterback? Aaron Rodgers. Whose size, whose body? Tom Brady. Whose strength? Ben Roethlisberger. Whose toughness? Philip Rivers. Whose football IQ? Gotta go Tom again. Whose speed? Lamar Jackson. And who’s persona? Tom Brady.” It is evident that the Trojans’ QB looks up to Tom Brady but he’s also talked about how he wants to be better than the 7-time Super Bowl winner.

Come April, Williams’ future will be firmly set for years to come as he chases 8-Super Bowls desperately.
