Caleb Williams pairs a Heisman Trophy and a rookie ball-security record with his role as the Chicago Bears quarterback.
Williams at a glance
Caleb Williams owns a Heisman Trophy and unanimous All-American honours from his standout college season, when he also led the NCAA in passing touchdowns and earned first-team all-conference status. A second-team all-conference selection preceded that run, and USC later retired his jersey. The Chicago Bears quarterback added a rookie benchmark for consecutive passes without an interception, underlining the ball security that accompanied his college production.
Williams is the Chicago Bears quarterback in the NFL. Chicago used the top pick on him after his Oklahoma and USC years. His passing career shows 7,483 yards with 47 touchdowns and 13 interceptions, while his rushing yards give the position another dimension. That dual output shapes his role in Chicago.
