"Big fan!": USC superstar Caleb Williams has a hilarious reaction spotting Washington's Rome Odunze en route to the 2024 NFL Draft
Players are converging on Detroit for the 2024 NFL Draft. Widely expected first-overall pick Caleb Williams had a serendipitous encounter on his flight to the Motor City. He bumped into former Washington Huskies wide receiver Rome Odunze and went on his X account to express his admiration for the playmaker.
"Oh sh*t yall I just saw Rome Odunze on my flight to Detroit!! Big fan!"
Odunze is one of the best playmakers on offer this year for NFL franchises, with him possibly being the second-best behind Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr. Odunze had 1,640 all-purpose yards and 13 touchdown receptions in 92 catches during the 2023 season.
He had arguably one of his best games of the season under the spotlight in the CFP semifinal game against the Texas Longhorns. Despite not posting a touchdown reception that day, he caught six passes for 125 yards.

Caleb Williams, another Heisman recipient from USC, took to his Instagram account to celebrate the decision.
He posted a picture holding a Trojans jersey with Bush's No. 5 and added the following commentary:
"You gotta come back an turn em up now. Back like you never left."
