“Little Weird”: Caleb Williams and Team’s Epic Restaurant Act Raises Eyebrows

The star of the upcoming NFL Draft continues to garner more eyes as a strange incident grabs the headlines. Caleb Williams is considered to be the next generational talent that is headed to the NFL. But so far, he is drawing in more negative publicity than the positive because of the things he has to say amid the Draft speculations.

Caleb Williams, the franchise quarterback for the USC Trojans, was the backbone of the team’s success last season. He threw out an exceptional 3,633 passing yards in 2023 and made a big name for himself. As such, he was projected to be the number 1 QB pick at the NFL Draft which is only 50 days away. Williams’ has faced a lot of backlash for his decisions regarding the NFL Combine but drew separate fire for a recent Steak ‘n Shake incident.

The Patriots Press Show deems Caleb and his team’s gathering at a restaurant a “little weird”

On the latest episode of the Patriots Press’ show, hosts Taylor Kyles from CLNS Media and guest Daniel Harms talk about the speculations regarding Williams’ Draft future. They further delved into the issues regarding his denial of undergoing medical evaluation for all 32 NFL teams. But what was more interesting to note was the uncanny incident that occurred in front of Harms as he passed a Stake ‘n Shake restaurant.

He talked about the incident and said, “I was walking past uh Stake n’ Shake and he and his team, someone, had just bought out the entire restaurant because it was just he and his team and there was no one else there. Which is a little weird for a place like a Steak n’ Shake, that you just go and you buy it out.” And yet in another strange interaction, Williams gets called out for acting so out of the ordinary. But Skip Bayless, host of the famous Undisputed show, has strong words for Williams’ future amid all the doubts and concerns regarding the USC quarterback.

Skip Bayless thinks Williams can live up to the pressure in a recent statement

Everyone knows that Skip Bayless is a die-hard Dallas Cowboys fan. Additionally, the Cowboys’ biggest rival is the Washington Commanders, who have the second overall pick at this year’s edition of the NFL Draft. As such, Bayless will be shaking in his boots if the Commanders do indeed end up trading and signing Williams as he’s considered to be the best quarterback at the Draft.

Bayless said, “What I would fear as a Cowboy fan, is if they traded up and gave whatever it took to get Caleb. He has that ‘It’ factor. He can stand up to the pressure.” Thus, Bayless has joined the likes of several fans who think Caleb just might be the next big generational talent in the NFL, someone who could very plausibly give Patrick Mahomes a run for his money. But until he plays his very first game with the big boys, he’ll continue to endure doubts regarding his talents and name.
