MARIO WILLIAMS

Barring an unforeseen 11th-hour trade, the Jaguars will select a player who does not play quarterback with the first overall pick of the 2022 draft. That doesn’t happen very often anymore.

This year’s NFL draft has the chance to be unlike any other in recent years with a possible long wait before any of the players who throw, catch or run with the ball coming off the board.

Kayvon Thibodeaux looked like a lock to be this year’s top NFL draft pick until Aidan Hutchinson played his way into the conversation.

Lincoln Riley says he didn't — and couldn't — talk to Caleb Williams between the day the coach left Oklahoma and the day his once-and-future star quarterback entered the transfer portal five weeks later. “There's a long period of time where there's zero communication,” Riley said Wednesday while announcing his February signing period class.

Caleb Williams is transferring to Southern California, following his former coach Lincoln Riley from Oklahoma to the Trojans.

Caleb Williams threw for 402 yards and six touchdowns and No. 4 Oklahoma finally put together a complete game, rolling past Texas Tech 52-21 on Saturday.

Spencer Rattler passed for a touchdown and ran for another to help No. 3 Oklahoma beat Nebraska 23-16.
