Caleb Williams Bounces Back with Impressive Bears Practice
26 Jul
Summary
- Caleb Williams struggled early in Bears training camp
- But turned in an incredible performance in a closed practice on Saturday
- Completed a touchdown pass in a 2-minute drill, a tough drill for offenses

This past week, Chicago Bears fans were concerned as their new franchise quarterback, Caleb Williams, struggled during the first few days of training camp. Williams spent much of his time throwing the ball away, throwing interceptions, or getting sacked, leading some national analysts to jump on the "doom and gloom" train.
However, the tide turned on Saturday when Williams turned in an incredible performance during a closed Bears practice. Fans were supposed to attend, but inclement weather forced the team to disallow spectators, depriving them of the chance to see Williams' impressive display.
According to multiple Bears beat reporters, the highlight of the day came when Williams led a successful 2-minute drill, capping it off with a touchdown pass to Rome Odunze. The 2-minute drill is often a challenge for offenses, especially this early in training camp, so it was an encouraging sign for Bears fans.
While it's still early and Williams will have good and bad days, this practice was a positive step forward. Bears fans would be wise not to get too carried away, as training camp practices can be carefully scripted. However, if Williams can build on this performance, there may be reason for optimism in Chicago.
