The day the Bears began training camp last year, quarterback Caleb Williams said he was prepared for the ups and downs of his rookie season.
“I understand it’s Year 1,” he said then. “There’s going to be times it’s going to be tough. Times are going to be good. Tough times, you keep going. Good times, you also keep going.”
He didn’t know the half of it.
Williams took 99% of the snaps in a season in which the Bears lost 10 straight games and made Matt Eberflus the first head coach in franchise history to be fired midseason.
