GREEN BAY, Wis.— For all that Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has yet to prove in the NFL, he has left no doubt that his elusiveness in the pocket is elite.

He has gone from being the most sacked quarterback in the league as a rookie to having the most time to throw at 3.22 seconds, and while a majorly upgraded offensive line has played a big part in that, there’s no denying the effect of his uncanny pocket awareness and ability to slip even the surest tacklers.

The pocket will shrink to nothing, and sometimes a defensive player even gets their hand on him or his jersey, and still Williams slips away.
