DJ Moore elaborates on the means through which Caleb Williams can garner the respect of the Bears' locker room.
The Chicago Bears have made the decision to move on from Justin Fields, paving the way for a new rookie quarterback, most likely USC's Caleb Williams, to join the team next month.
While the trade of Fields wasn't universally embraced within the locker room� with several former teammates expressing their desire for Fields to remain in Chicago�the players also recognize the pragmatic nature of the NFL business.
Now, Bears standout wide receiver DJ Moore will have a fresh face throwing him the ball in the 2024 season. Moore, known for his strong support of Fields, shared insights into how Williams (or any rookie, for that matter) can earn the respect of the Bears' locker room, akin to what Fields accomplished.
«I hope he just comes in and gets ready to work,» Moore stated via 670 the Score. «You can't worry about the legacy of Justin Fields. You got to go out there and focus on your own journey.»
Fields was admired for his diligent work ethic�being the first to arrive and the last to leave�and his natural leadership qualities. While it may take time for Williams to cultivate these traits, there's optimism that he can command respect through dedication and on-field performance.
As the anticipated top pick in his draft class, Williams possesses all the attributes to ascend as a star quarterback in the league. However, akin to his college journey, he'll need to earn it through perseverance and dedication, starting with the acceptance of his future teammates.
