DETROIT — The Bears pulled starting quarterback Caleb Williams midway through the fourth quarter, down 52-21 to the Lions, and replaced him with backup Tyson Bagent.
In a familiar scene Sunday against the Lions, Williams made maddening mistakes and came up with too few splashy plays to make up for them in coach Ben Johnson’s return to Ford Field. His fourth-down failures, an inexplicable interception and various misfires left them with no chance.
Williams exited with a 91.9 passer rating after completing 19 of 30 passes for 207 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.
