Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams left Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings with an apparent right hamstring injury during the fourth quarter and was carted off the field. The No. 1 pick in the 2024 draft completed 15 of 26 passes for 138 yards, one interception, and rushed for 42 yards before getting injured while attempting to reach the end zone on a scramble. Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent replaced Williams for the remainder of the game, which ended with the Vikings winning 9-3.
Coach Ben Johnson described Williams' injury as "week-to-week" but did not provide a definitive timeline for his return. He noted that Caleb tends to recover quickly from such injuries and emphasized the team's optimism about his recovery despite the uncertainty. The Bears are now preparing for their next game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night, with Tyson Bagent potentially stepping in as the starting quarterback if Williams is unable to play. If Williams cannot participate in the upcoming games, it will mark the first time Johnson has had to start a backup since drafting Williams in 2024. The team's record now stands at 1-1 after their loss to the Vikings.
