Caleb Williams Explains His 'Unique' Zippered Outfit for 2024 NFL Draft

USC's Caleb Williams, the projected No. 1 pick in Thursday night's NFL draft, definitely stood out to scouts and football pundits alike as he prepares to make the leap to professional football. His outfit Thursday also stood out as he walked the carpet in Detroit.

Williams explained all the details of his draft night suit during an interview with the NFL Network.

"You don't really see too many people with a double breasted zip-up, so I went double breasted zip-up, stacking the chrome hearts, smallest to largest," Williams said. "I got it on the pants leg. I got it on the back as a monochrome. It's very subtle, no big chains, nothing like that."

Williams was hyping up his draft outfit weeks ago, calling it "one of one." He wasn't wrong there as no other players showed up with zippers on their suits.

The 22-year-old showed up to the big event with his girlfriend and his mom on his arms. After the draft begins at 8 p.m. ET on Thursday, Williams's NFL career will begin—likely with the Chicago Bears.
