Caleb Williams may have found trouble making a mark on the football field, but he sure has left a significant impression in fashion and style. The rookie quarterback receives recognition for his unique flair by earning the title of GQ Sports’ Most Stylish Football Player of the Year by popular choice.
GQ Sports Instagram handle honored Williams as the most stylish football player, revealing he was chosen by fans across the world. He triumphed over notable competitors like Kyler Murray, Justin Jefferson, and Stefon Diggs, who even debuted in the 2024 Met Gala in Custom H&M.
As much as the Chicago Bears quarterback received appreciation for on-field talent after being drafted in the first overall pick in 2024, his bold sense of fashion became subject to intense criticism among the fans. Yet, the young quarterback remains unapologetic with his personal style, whether be it painting his nails or carrying a purse. However, his fashion statement goes far beyond those moments.
From the moment Williams arrived at the NFL Draft in a striking custom Chrome Hearts suit, he has showcased a strong sense of self. “Just be who you are and stay true to that,” he advised in an interview with GQ, a mantra that has clearly resonated with fans as they vote for him in large numbers.
