He is back!
The Chicago Bears are expected to activate quarterback Caleb Williams for the team’s Week 6 road game against the Atlanta Falcons (Sunday at 1 p.m. ET), NFL Media reported Saturday morning.
Williams has missed Chicago’s last three games with a Grade 2 hamstring strain that resulted in his departure. Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent started in place of Williams, with the Bears going 2-1 in Williams’ absence. Chicago is 3-2 on the year.
Williams seemed to hint at an imminent return to one TikTok posts that shows video of the quarterback breaking away and then some of his highlights.
