The decision to draft Williams follows the Bears' acquisition of the top pick from the Carolina Panthers, who traded it last year to secure Bryce Young. Further fueling the buzz, Williams' potential jersey number with the Bears was reportedly leaked online, a snippet he seemed to appreciate by liking the related video on his social media.
At the game, Bears head coach Matt Eberflus and linebacker Tremaine Edmunds were present, possibly inspiring the chants. This gesture comes shortly after the Bears traded their previous quarterback, Justin Fields, to the Pittsburgh Steelers, paving the way for Williams. With a collegiate record of 3,633 passing yards and 30 touchdowns, Williams is set to be a game-changer, potentially the most significant quarterback prospect for the Bears since Sid Luckman.
