Caleb Williams is presumably going to be the first player taken in the NFL Draft later this month when the Chicago Bears are officially put on the clock.

The 2022 Heisman Trophy winner has been put under the spotlight since his final year at USC and he faced more of it from former Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy, who said the star quarterback "never experienced adversity" and wondered if Williams was going to be able to continue to play football with a "chip on his shoulder."

Williams fired back at McElroy in a post on X.

"Let’s go back to school again," he wrote, "because I’m bored (right now)."

He then detailed how his collegiate career went. He was a backup to Spencer Rattler to start his freshman season at Oklahoma. He transferred to USC after Lincoln Riley took the job and became one of the best quarterbacks in the country. Williams wrote that in 2022 he "popped" his hamstring in the Pac-12 Championship and the team lost.

He then added that he was 7-5 with USC in his final season.
