Social media is a brutal and bottomless cesspool where nothing disappears after finding its way to it. Caleb Williams is quite familiar with it. The 23-year-old has been a target of trolls ever since his days at USC for various reasons.
Trolls jumped in to make fun of him whenever the opportunity presented itself. The intensity increased after a defeat. Fans of college football may remember Williams receiving severe backlash for shedding tears after his ex-team, USC, lost a crucial game against the Washington Huskies. It closed the Trojans’ door to the playoffs.
He was not spared even after winning the Heisman Trophy. Unfortunately, it has continued well into his NFL career. His rookie season did not go according to plan despite flashes of brilliance from the first overall pick.
Fans are looking forward to a better second year. However, the trolls don’t require a timeline to take digs. For instance, Williams recently shared photos from a friend’s wedding.
One of the pictures featured his nails that were painted blue with nail polish. This ticked off a group of trolls, and they made sure Williams heard it on X.

Caleb Williams trolled for his preferences
Williams attended the wedding of former USC defensive coordinator (now at Washington) Taylor Mays over the weekend. To honor the dress code for males, he wore everything black, except that his watch had an orange strap and his nails were bright blue.

Painting nails in the football world is frowned upon.

Williams has been called out a few times for coloring his nails before. However, he won’t stop doing it.
Williams’ only focus should be on improving his craft and helping the team challenge the likes of the Eagles, Packers, and Lions in the NFC. The Bears’ fortunes should change, considering they hired one of the most sought-after coaches in football, Ben Johnson.
Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning is confident that the duo of Williams and Johnson can make the Bears great again.
When you have the same system, it’s the same language every single year. Learning a new system every year is tough. And Ben Johnson, the other thing, he had a choice to go anywhere he wanted. He chose to go to the Bears, which arguably could be the toughest division in football. It tells you what he thinks about Caleb and about that team.

Johnson was the offensive coordinator at Detroit. He helped save the career of Jared Goff and will be looking to kick-start Williams’ in Chicago.
