Caleb Williams

Caleb Williams completed 14-of-29 passes for 93 yards, zero interceptions and zero touchdowns in the Bears’ 24-17, Week 1 win over the Titans, adding five rushes for 15 yards.

The numbers are actually even worse than that, as Williams took two terrible sacks for a combined 29 yards, giving him 64 yards net passing. Williams looked more than ready for prime time physically, but it was a classic “the game is moving too fast” performance otherwise. Williams seemed almost frantic through his progressions, and just was not timing things up right. He had several batted passes. The good news is, he avoided the truly big mistake, and did improve as the second half wore on. There he just needed to hit a few layups as the Bears’ defense took over, and he executed the mission. Williams is going to get better, and likely in a hurry, but fantasy managers should clearly not be counting on him as a QB1 for Week 2 against the Texans.
