The Chicago Bears had quite the miserable season last year, which made life quite difficult for rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, the top pick in the 2024 NFL draft.

Speaking with Brian O'Keefe of Esquire, Williams admitted that the sheer amount of losing he endured during his rookie season was something he's never had to experience before, and it took a toll on him. "I’ll be honest with you, I’ve never lost this much," Williams told O'Keefe.

The Cleveland Guardians couldn’t keep the momentum going on Wednesday night. They dropped a 9-1 decision to the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards, and while Gavin Williams was mostly solid, the few mistakes he made wound up costing the team the game.

The Bears ’ new brain trust, then, has a low bar to clear and a lot of mistakes to clean up. Ben Johnson’s presence as the head coach and offensive play-caller will ensure the offense has a distinct personality — and person in charge. Those below him will work to deliver that message to Williams in a critical season for the second-year quarterback.

The Chicago Bears continue to prioritize Caleb Williams this offseason. After hiring new head coach Ben Johnson and shoring up the offensive line, the Bears signed veteran quarterback Case Keenum to a one-year deal to serve as a mentor in the quarterback room -- and perhaps even contend for the backup job.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams doesn't want to use his time in the NFL to socialize. The former No. 1 overall pick said his focus is on the competition side of football, not with making friends with the other offensive leaders in the league.
