It's no secret or exaggeration to say Chicago's 2024-25 season did not go the way rookie quarterback Caleb Williams had planned; his draft day text to rookie punter Tory Taylor should tell you everything you need to know.

Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was not nominated for Offensive Rookie of the Year which should motivate him for Year 2 with Ben Johnson.
