Likely first overall pick Caleb Williams reportedly made a good impression with several Chicago Bears during a team dinner.
Caleb Williams is widely expected to go first overall to the Bears in the 2024 NFL Draft, which begins on Apr. 25. Chicago holds the top pick thanks to the Carolina Panthers, who gave up their 2024 first-rounder as part of the package to move up and take Bryce Young first overall a yea ago.
According to a report from the ML Football X/Twitter account, Williams’ dinner with multiple Chicago players “went extremely well.” Several players thought Williams was “cool” and humble”, the report added.
