Caleb Williams, Tyson Bagent estimated as non-participants Thursday
The Bears did not practice on Thursday, but their practice report does not bode well for their top two quarterbacks.
Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is eager to return to the field following his hamstring injury, according to head coach Ben Johnson. Williams suffered a grade one hamstring strain during last week's loss to the Minnesota Vikings and is currently listed as week-to-week. Johnson acknowledges that Williams' competitive spirit is both something to manage and something to appreciate about him.
The coach finds it challenging to keep Williams from pushing himself too hard, but understands the player's desire to be back on the grass going full speed. Chicago is taking a cautious approach to avoid further injury, but the faster Williams can recover, the better for the team and its fans.
