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

Williams returned to practice this week and is awaiting final medical clearance after missing three games with a hamstring tear, the Bears said.

  • On Sunday, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams returned to the starting lineup, leading the team to a 31-23 victory over the Atlanta Falcons after missing three games with a hamstring injury.
  • Williams suffered a hamstring tear during the Bears' Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, sidelining him for three games while backup quarterbacks Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent led Chicago to a 2-1 record.
  • In his return, Williams completed 30 of 36 passes for 305 yards and one touchdown, earning the LFG Player of the Game award and improving the Bears' record to 3-2.
  • The Bears face a compressed schedule, hosting the New England Patriots on Thursday Night Football just four days after defeating Atlanta, with coaches monitoring several players' health status.
  • With Williams back in the fold, Chicago aims to build momentum against a challenging slate featuring the 49ers, Chiefs, and Lions while seeking to improve on their 3-2 record.
