The 2024 NFL Draft prospects are putting their best (fashionable) foot forward in Detroit.
Before teams hit the clock and draft their future stars, the NFL hopefuls kicked off the red carpet at Detroit’s Fox Theatre on Thursday. Thirteen prospects were invited to attend the 2024 NFL Draft in person – including former Southern California star Caleb Williams, LSU alum Jayden Daniels and former Ohio State standout Marvin Harrison Jr. – and it's safe to say the players made a statement just as they did on the field.
There was extravagant jewelry, sentimental tributes and a plethora of custom suits. Here are some of the best dressed prospects that graced the NFL Draft red carpet:

QB Caleb Williams
All eyes were on Williams when he accepted the 2022 Heisman Trophy in a Gucci suit. He promised Ryan Clark on "The Pivot Podcast" earlier this week that the draft day outfit he planned to wear during the next milestone of his career would be "better than that." Williams, the presumed No. 1 pick of the NFL Draft out of USC, delivered with a blue, double-breasted zip-up jacket that featured Chrome Hearts details.
"You don't see too many people with a double-breasted zip-up," Williams said on the red carpet. "Just very subtle, no big chains, anything like that. Classy, unique, one-of-one."
WR Marvin Harrison Jr.
Like father, like son. Harrison paid tribute to his father, longtime Indianapolis Colt and Hall of Fame receiver Marvin Harrison, with a "Lion King" inspired chain that featured Mufasa and his son Simba. The other side of the pendant had a silhouette of his father in his No. 88 Colts' uniform, while a child, presumed to be young Harrison, looked on.
"Man nothin motived me more than watching the NFL draft every year and hoping that’d be me… and now I’m here," the Ohio State receiver wrote on X Thursday.
Harrison paired his custom chain with a black Louis Vuitton suit that had the brand's signature monogram in sequins for added flair. He finished his look off with a pair of black shades and studded loafers.
Here's a closer look at Harrison's chain:
DE Terrion Arnold
The University of Alabama defensive end may bleed crimson, but he stepped out on the red carpet pristine in pink. Arnold donned an "Electric Salmon, 1-of-1" silk print custom suit designed by Gentleman's Playbook. Arnold's suit included a sentimental touch: The inside of his jacket was lined with family photos, including a photo of himself from Pop Warner days.
"Memory lane, man. Just a kid with a dream and I made it come true," Arnold said while taking in the photos. "Can't forget about the fam. Wouldn't be here without them. It's special."
WR Malik Nabers
Arnold wasn't the only player keeping his team close to his heart, literally. The inside lining of Nabers' grey, double-breasted suit featured dozens of photos of his LSU teammates. He accessorized his fit with a massive "Leek" chain, a nod to his nickname. The chain featured over 30 carats of diamonds and over 200 grams of Rose Gold, according to Jacob Mark Jewelers.
