Bears Coach Praises Caleb Williams While QB Stays Quiet in Wake of Book Excerpt

  • Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson praised rookie quarterback Caleb Williams during a May 2025 press conference in Lake Forest, Illinois.
  • Williams and his father initially opposed joining the Bears and explored alternatives before accepting the 2024 draft outcome, as described in Seth Wickersham's September 2025 book.
  • Williams, who threw 20 touchdown passes but took a franchise-record 68 sacks in his rookie season, did not speak to the media amid reported tensions with the previous Bears staff.
  • Johnson praised his experience working with the quarterback over the past four months, describing it as excellent, and expressed enthusiasm about the chance to alter the perception highlighted by Carl Williams, who previously remarked that Chicago has a reputation for ending quarterbacks’ careers.
  • The Bears appear focused on a fresh start with new leadership and improved culture to support Williams' development and overturn past struggles.
