Four-time NBA champion Draymond Green does not believes in Caleb Williams. During an appearance on Jordan Schultz's podcast, the Golden State Warriors player called out the Bears quarterback and his productivity on the field.
Green also raised questions on Williams' leadership skills while talking about how they finally claimed their first win for the season against the Cowboys. He also expressed his doubts about the team's chances of making a Super Bowl appearance with him as the QB1.
"He had a good game," Green said. "This is the number one pick. He should have a good game. ,,, That's beautiful. Is he leading you to the promised land? ... He isn't leading you to a Super Bowl in year 10 either. ...
"Yes he's freakishly talented. We all know that cause he's a Heisman winner, which is why he was the number one pick in the draft. By the way, just so we're clear, I want to see him do well. I want him to be great. Like I'm rooting for a young black quarterback in the NFL. ... And I question, is can he become a great leader? We have not seen that in his career."
After facing struggles in the first two matches of the season, Caleb Williams had a decent show against the Cowboys last week. He completed 19 of 28 passes he attempted for 298 yards. The quarterback also scored four passing touchdowns to help the Bears secure a 31-14 win.
Phil Simms backs Caleb Williams after great outing against the Cowboys in Week 3
After Week 3's win, Phil Simms came forward to showcase his support for Caleb Williams.
On the 'Up & Adams' show, he slammed all the quarterback's critics and how fans wanted the team to look for a different QB1 if Williams had another bad year.
"When the season is over, I gotta look," Simms said. "I watch a lot of TV because I want to hear what people are saying, and it gives me energy. And either I might even steal some of the things."
"But last year, you know, people said, 'If Caleb doesn't have a good year this year, they'll probably draft another quarterback.' What? Man, that is the dumbest damn thing I've ever heard. It reall is, and Caleb Williams, anytime last year, I know it wasn't great, but he's a damn rookie."
Williams and Bears next face Las Vegas Raiders on September 28 at Allegiant Stadium. The match will be broadcast on CBS at 4:25 pm ET.
