A bombshell fell over the NFL world on Thursday with details in a soon-to-be-released book by ESPN's Seth Wickersham, titled "American Kings: A Biography of the Quarterback," that quarterback Caleb Williams tried to avoid being drafted by the Chicago Bears last year.
Williams had quite the successful season on a personal level, throwing for 3,541 yards, 20 touchdowns, and six interceptions, placing himself in both franchise and NFL record books for some of his performances. Although it wasn't the best environment for the rookie, which seemed to match his initial fears about joining the organization.
