Head coach Matt Eberflus erased any doubt that Caleb Williams is the Chicago Bears' starting quarterback for next season.

Caleb Williams is the Chicago Bears' starting quarterback. Just in case there was a shred of doubt that the No. 1 overall draft pick is the team's No. 1 QB, coach Matt Eberflus erased it on Friday. 'No conversation. He's the starter,' he said. Eberflus' comment was hardly a surprise considering the Bears have been all in on Williams since the early stages of the draft process. They made their intentions clear when they traded Justin Fields to Pittsburgh in March.

But they see themselves as a playoff contender after going from three wins in 2022 to finishing 7-10 last season. That largely hinges on Williams. 'You can really tell he's comfortable in his own skin, and he is who he is,' Eberflus said. 'His personality starts. His light comes out from the inside.
