Chicago Bears Quarterback Caleb Williams Feels Ready to Test Injured Hamstring Against Atlanta

Williams completed a full week of practice and is awaiting final clearance after missing three games with a hamstring injury.

  • On Sunday, October 18, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams returned from a three-game absence, leading his team to a 31-23 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Williams completed 30 of 36 passes for 305 yards and a touchdown.
  • After suffering a hamstring tear during the team's Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on September 20, Williams was sidelined for three games following a projected 3-4 week recovery timeline.
  • During media availability Thursday, Williams disputed characterizations of his injury as a 'Grade 2' strain, calling it a 'pretty serious' tear while declining to disclose the specific grade, citing frustration with inaccurate reporting.
  • Defensive back Kyler Gordon, activated from the PUP list Saturday, bolstered Chicago's defense with three sacks and two forced fumbles, helping the Bears hold off a late fourth-quarter rally by Atlanta.
  • The Bears host the New England Patriots on Thursday night just four days after this victory, testing Chicago's resilience as they build on a 4-2 season record.
