per ESPN:
If Rodrick Williams Jr. accomplishes nothing else in his Minnesota career, he will always have one claim to fame.
"He may be the only guy in college football who takes his lizard for a walk," Gophers running backs coach Pat Poore said.
Williams is the proud owner of a 10-month old, 2-foot-long savannah monitor. He has a leash and a harness for his pet lizard and occasionally takes him for walks outside his off-campus apartment.
As you might imagine, Williams garners some quizzical looks from passers-by on those reptilian rambles. But his teammates mostly just shrug.
"It’s kind of fitting for him," quarterback Mitch Leidner said. "It's not too much of a surprise if you know how goofy he is."
