Caleb Williams was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Just by signing his name, he made over $25 million.
Tyson Bagent, his backup at quarterback for the Chicago Bears, went undrafted in 2023 out of Shepherd University. Per Spotrac, he got a $25,000 bonus when he signed a three-year deal.
So, uh, yeah. If I were Bagent, I too would — jokingly, of course — react to Williams announcing his bonus to the team by shaking and quaking. It’s all in good fun, and it’s a great clip from the upcoming Bears edition of Hard Knocks.
Check it out below and have a laugh:
