Overview
- Williams broke the 30-year franchise record with a 25-yard touchdown to Jahdae Walker 44 seconds into the fourth quarter.
- He entered needing 109 yards to pass Erik Kramer’s 3,838 and has not been reported to reach 4,000 yards yet.
- Chicago was shut out before halftime and trailed 13-0, and the record-setting score produced the Bears’ first points after a successful two-point try.
- The Bears began the day as the NFC’s No. 2 seed, which they keep with a win or an Eagles loss; otherwise they drop to No. 3 but still host a playoff game.
- Coach Ben Johnson framed 4,000 yards as a tertiary goal to winning, while Williams acknowledged the milestone as a personal target within a team-first approach.
