Overview

• ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler floated a scenario in which Chicago could consider Tyson Bagent by around Week 10 if Williams doesn’t settle into Ben Johnson’s timing offense, noting camp impressions that the unit looked crisper with Bagent.
• On ESPN, Dan Orlovsky urged the Bears to hold off on any drastic move and give Williams time to develop, saying the team should wait until November.
• Johnson said he saw significant growth from Week 1 to Week 2, citing better progression work and rhythm throws even as some accuracy and timing issues persisted.
• Through two games, Williams has completed about 61.5% of his passes for 417 yards with three touchdowns and one interception, plus 85 rushing yards and a rushing score.
• Chicago is 0-2 and preparing for Dallas after opening-drive touchdowns in both losses were followed by sputtering offense and poor defensive showings.
