As is customary with this time of year, concerns for a top NFL Draft prospect’s measurements immediately evaporated once those measurements were actually taken.
For the probable top pick in quarterback Caleb Williams, his height and hand size were going to come under scrutiny for those who just need something to fixate on during this process.
However, this weekend’s 2024 NFL combine proved that Williams’ height and hand size are very normal and not even vaguely a cause for concern.
With the Chicago Bears his most likely landing spot, the franchise probably just got additional confirmation on what it already knew. Williams measures more than up to par with previous top picks at the position.

Hand size is not a concern for Caleb Williams. https://t.co/LvmaHL5k6j— William Luke Hendrick (@WilliamLH21) March 2, 2024
