8/04/25 | Will Bears QB Caleb Williams play in preseason games? Ben Johnson has a decision to make this week. Matt Nagy spent the 2020 offseason trying to figure out what went wrong with the Bears. One chief regret, the former Bears coach decided then, was the way he coddled his quarterback during preseason games. The Bears played five preseason games in 2018, Nagy's first season. Mitch Trubisky, the No. 2 overall pick a year earlier, threw just 18 passes in them. Source: https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2025/08/04/bear... |
