Caleb Williams Explains Decision to Skip Medical Testing at NFL Combine

Caleb Williams begins the NFL draft process in a unique position as the consensus top prospect available, giving him a level of power that most prospects don’t have. The former USC quarterback is already using his status in the draft to determine the kind of draft process he undergoes at the NFL scouting combine.

Williams explained that he won’t be doing medical testing at the combine for all 32 teams like every other prospect. Instead, he will undergo medical testing at his private meetings with interested teams.

“I’ll be doing the medical stuff, just not here in Indy,” Williams said, via ESPN’s Courtney Cronin. “I'll be doing it at the team interviews. Not 32 teams can draft me. There's only one of me. So the teams that I go to for my visit, those teams will have the medical and that’ll be it.”
