One of the first three quarterbacks to be selected in the 2022 draft is a former Liberty University quarterback who was caught on video performing a random act of kindness.
In a video that has over one million views, a man in a suitcase is seen opening his suitcase on the street and handing items to a man sitting on a milk crate.
It's hard to tell from the distance what the man is getting, but it appears to be new clothing wrapped in plastic. The video has made the rounds on social media, with some users skeptical about whether the shot was set up or not, but with most applauding the kindness of the man in the video.
The man behind the video, Ryan Lacey, also tagged the former college team in the replies.
In 2019, Willis transferred from Auburn to Liberty, where he started his final two years and led the program to a 10-1 season and Top 25 finish in 2020. He told the press on Wednesday that he thought his NFL dreams were shot after leaving the blue-blood program at Auburn, but he’s one of the top QBs in this 2022 class, and he understands the public pressure that comes with being an NFL QB.
“I mean, you’re the face of the franchise, literally. You’re the face of the city. So, you’ve got to understand everything that comes with that and making sure you’re doing all the right things and making sure you’re doing your job,” Willis said in his combine media interview, Per ESPN.
He definitely seems like the type of guy you would want as the face of your franchise, not to mention his dual-threat arm strength and mobility. Concerns about his throwing accuracy are the biggest issue for prospective teams at the moment as the draft class moves forward in completing evaluations this week.
