Caleb Williams isn't giving the Bears reason to be concerned

NFL quarterback guru Jordan Palmer and Dan Patrick discuss the development of quarterbacks in 2024, featuring first pick Caleb Williams. The former USC Trojan has received glowing reviews from quarterback coach Jordan Palmer, who is renowned for mentoring top signal-callers such as Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes, and Josh Allen.

Palmer also compares the skillset of Caleb Williams to that of Patrick Mahomes coming out of college.

Palmer is the younger brother of USC Heisman Winner quarterback Carson Palmer. Jordan played for UTEP roughly 20 years ago and was the sixth round draft pick of the Washington Commanders. He played in the NFL from 2007-14 for the Chicago Bears, Tennessee Titans, Cincinnati Bengals, Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills.

Bears Wire reports that Caleb Williams is giving the Bears zero reason to think they made a bad draft choice:

Often times, especially in recent Bears’ history, a highly-touted and top prospect quarterback has come in with plenty of hype, but the results on the field, and even in front of the media, have not been there. While there were have been many things to appreciate and enjoy about the Bears’ first time on “Hard Knocks,” it has given an early glimpse to how Williams handles the spotlight, and he’s passed with flying colors.

With confidence that does not waver, a belief in himself and in this football team to be successful in Year 1, this has proven early on not to be an act from the top pick. It’s only the preseason and a few episodes of “Hard Knocks,” but if Williams stays true to the character and talent level that’s he displayed thus far, it has all the makings of 2024 being special for himself and the Bears franchise.
