By pure circumstance, USC quarterback Caleb Williams was on the same flight to Detroit on Tuesday as Washington receiver Rome Odunze.

Time will tell whether they’re on the same flight out of Detroit — and to Chicago — on Friday morning.

After celebrating with his family, Williams will head to Halas Hall after the Bears take him first overall Thursday night at the NFL draft in Detroit. Bears general manager Ryan Poles seemed to admit the obvious Tuesday, smirking and saying fans would have to tune in Thursday night for the Bears’ final decision.
