Chicago Bears selecting USC quarterback Caleb Williams as the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft. Following the recent trade of star quarterback Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Bears’ franchise has an opportunity to revitalize their performance with Williams.
While it is challenging to foresee Williams’ performance in light of the significant changes the Bears have undergone, there is growing speculation about what a successful rookie season would entail for the former Trojans superstar.
If Williams lives up to expectations and proves himself as a talented player, his rookie season could be on par with C.J. Stroud’s impressive debut season with the Houston Texans. Nick Wright from FOX Sports suggests that a successful campaign for Williams in Chicago would involve leading the team to the NFL playoffs, setting a new franchise record for passing yards in a season, and establishing himself as one of the league’s most promising young quarterbacks, as mentioned on First Things First.
