Bears interim coach Thomas Brown has had a lot thrown at him in his whirlwind of promotions over the past month, but there’s still one clear priority for him and the organization: Keep rookie quarterback Caleb Williams on the rise.
Williams took flight again when Brown stepped in as offensive coordinator and play caller ahead of the Week 11 Packers game, and the biggest concern about making him head coach after Matt Eberflus got fired was that it seemed unwise to tinker with a structure that was working so well for Williams.
