This Important Reminder About Caleb Williams During training camp
Caleb Williams Faces Rookie Challenges at Bears OTAs
First and foremost, Caleb Williams is entering his rookie season as the starting quarterback for the Chicago Bears. Secondly, the Bears are implementing a new offense under recently hired offensive coordinator Shane Waldron. Lastly, the team has three new starters at the skill positions on offense, in addition to a new starting center.
This isn't meant to preemptively excuse any struggles the Bears' offense might face during Training Camp or the regular season, but rather to provide context.
Reports from Thursday's practice indicated that Williams, along with the rest of the offense, struggled.
Every tweet about Williams missing a pass or nearly throwing an interception was met with comments like "this sounds awfully familiar" from fans who believe the Bears made a mistake by trading Justin Fields for Williams.
Caleb Williams will experience learning curves during his rookie season. Yes, in the past three years, the Bears' defense often bested Fields during OTAs and training camp. However, there is no direct correlation between Fields' experiences and what Williams will face in his first season with the Bears.
Every incompletion or interception by Williams shouldn't be compared to Fields' tenure as the Bears' starting quarterback.
To those still fixated on Fields, it might be more worthwhile to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bears have moved on, and it's time for fans to do the same, aligning with Ryan Poles' vision of distancing the organization from the past.
