He said, “I think if you put Bryce Young on the left side of the spectrum, and you put C.J. Stroud on the right side of the spectrum based on last year and their rookie seasons, I believe that Caleb Williams is going to be much farther to the right on the C.J. Stroud side of the docket than the Bryce Young side.” He even suggested that Williams has the potential to throw for 4,000 yards, thanks to the weapons the Bears have provided him.
Caleb is already determined to make the most of every second and meet the high expectations placed on him by himself and others. The Bears have created a comprehensive strategy for developing their new franchise quarterback.
