Willis played for the Liberty Flames as a quarterback.  His career highlights and honors include 2020 Cure Bowl MVP,  2021 LendingTree Bowl MVP and the Dudley Award (2020).

Panthers GM Scott Fitterer revealed there are "a couple" of quarterbacks he'd feel comfortable with at No. 6 overall, Willis among them.

What makes Willis so special coming out of tiny Liberty College?  Willis' arm strength has been compared to Josh Allen's in recent weeks.

An NFL scout told Bruce Feldman of the Atlantic that Willis' occasional accuracy issues would resolve themselves the more he played against NFL competition.
