Caleb Williams Sounds Like He’s Taking a More Vocal Role in the Bears' Offensive Design

That's a big step for the rookie quarterback this early in his career.

Coming off his best game of the season, Williams seems to be taking a more vocal role in the offensive design. When asked about the offensive unit’s communication and importance as the Bears work to figure things out, Williams said that it starts with him.

“It starts with me,” Williams said. “Being able to be a better communicator to the coaches, the players, and things like that about things that I would like a little bit more for certain situations, being a little more communicative and talking to those guys out there with us, [about] what they’re seeing and then getting to the sideline and being able to handle things properly on the sideline.”

Williams emphasized the importance of the offense running plays that are familiar and comfortable for everyone in the Bears’ offense, including himself. Reporters asked the rookie quarterback if Bears OC Shane Waldron has asked him for his input on that matter:

“Shane and I have talked about it. We’ve talked about it throughout the weeks, but [it’s about] being a little bit more in-depth, I would say, is what we’ve kind of come to after this past game. Being a little more in-depth about [those conversations] is the adjustments we’ve made after this last game.”
