The Gossip

USC quarterback Caleb Williams has declined to comment on his NFL career prospects, despite rumors suggesting he may declare for the NFL Draft or return to USC if the top pick is the Arizona Cardinals. Williams’ father, Carl Williams, believes his son has two options and may consider returning to school if the NFL situation isn’t favorable. He emphasized his focus on the upcoming game against Stanford and pledged to do his best to keep his teammates satisfied. Williams’ decision-making process may be influenced by speculation about the draft position of quarterbacks like Kyler Murray.

NIL may affect Caleb Williams’ NFL Draft selection, but analyst Paul Finebaum believes it won’t affect his choice. Finebaum compared it to Eli Manning’s situation, but believes Williams’ financial situation is insufficient, and he won’t continue working at Southern California.
