Caleb Williams Did His Homework over Summer Break

COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, JUL 22 – Williams, sacked a league-high 68 times in 2024, is now focusing on improving coachability and maturity under Bears coach Ben Johnson as he prepares for his second NFL season.

  • The Chicago Bears held their first official training camp day on July 23, 2025, with coach Ben Johnson and quarterback Caleb Williams present at Halas Hall.
  • Ben Johnson joined the Bears after serving as offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions and aims to improve Williams' completion rate, which was 62.5% last season, below league average.
  • Williams, who threw for 3,541 yards and 20 touchdowns but took 68 sacks as a rookie, worked extensively on footwork and play-calling during the offseason to reduce sacks and improve accuracy.
  • Johnson set a goal for Williams to complete 70% of his passes this season, describing it as a lofty target requiring detailed play-calling, motions, shifts, and cadence.
  • The Bears' strengthened offensive line and Johnson's coaching indicate a focused effort to increase Williams' accuracy and protect him from hits, suggesting significant development this season.
