Stop what you're doing and watch this video. I spent 15 minutes before writing this trying to think of something that could be more important than watching Caleb Williams throw footballs from 75 yards away during the first day of OTAs, and all I could come up with was: nothing. There isn't a thing on this planet more interesting, important, or impressive about Caleb Williams throwing footballs during the first day of OTAs.

And you're in luck, because now we have video showing that Caleb Williams, the Bears quarterback, is actually at the Bears' practice facility throwing Bears footballs. It's all happening; what would we do without the beat writers who spend 10 hours at the practice facility to take videos like this and then ask the athletes to talk about it. If we didn't have this video, I would just have to trust *the Chicago Bears* that Williams was developing nicely. Think about THAT next time you want to make fun of OTA content. Now let's watch this wonderful throw, together:


Caleb Williams' OTAs throws are the best OTAs throws in the history of OTAs

Look at it. Bask in its majesty. Not everyone can run a little bit and then throw a little bit. He even kinda pump fakes! Secondaries all across the NFC North are in shambles. Would any old tweet get *three hundred and thirty-three* likes? Hmm? If you don't think this is a huge deal, I'm afraid you just might not know ball. With the eyes of the world on him, Williams was able to switch his hips, roll out of the pocket, and deliver an absolute strike to ... someone. If this was in a game this would be a touchdown 10/10 times, I'm sure of it.

The Bears are so back. I don't see Jordan Love doing this. Where's Patrick Mahomes' OTA video? This is why Williams didn't force his way to the Vikings after all – he knew that delivering throws like this, during OTAs, would make him a legend forever.
