The NFL has for years gotten complaints from draft prospects about the length of time for medical examinations as well as the redundancy of having doctors from all teams examine the same player and ask the same (or similar) questions.

ESPN first reported that Williams did not plan to do medical testing at the combine, and further reported he plans to submit to medical exams with teams with which he meets individually during the pre-draft process.

Not sure what the average Chiefs fan’s obsession with tearing this dude down is all about.. they compare him to Mahomes and all of a sudden we’ve got raging hate boners for the guy. [Reply]

If there's a stupid process, why not take a step towards maybe getting it changed one day? :-)
"We've been wasting everyone's time for years and everyone hates it" isn't exactly reason to just fall in line when you can easily do sometimes else.
My first thought when reading the tweet was that if I had the Bears looking to draft me, I might do something stupid to fall down the list a bit, heh. [Reply]

It has nothing to do with Mahomes.
Caleb is coming across like one of the most entitled little child in NFL history. [Reply]

This is why I find him a bit annoying. Hopefully he matures bc he’s giving me Manziel vibes.

There is a reason why this info is shared with each and every team.
Teams pick players all the time they never directly communicated with. You expect them shell out massive amounts of $ without access to medicals? [Reply]

That's nonsense. He's going to be the top pick in the draft and he's the most successful college QB to ever enter the NFL. Why would you submit to tests with a team like the Chiefs? Just because it's always been done? Who cares about that?
Set a new standard that other players in a similar situation can follow. [Reply]
