2024 rookie stat projections for the Chicago Bears' recent draft class

Caleb Williams

16 starts, 345/540, 3,950 yards, 28 Touchdowns, 10 Interceptions. 420 rushing yards, 5 rushing Touchdowns

I think Williams will come SO close to the ever-elusive 4000-yard barrier but will ultimately fall just a bit short of the mark (with one game missed being a factor there). I do believe he will provide a massive impact right out of the gate though, and he's got the talent, supporting cast, and coaching staff to have the best season of any QB in franchise history in his first year at the helm.

Much like he did this preseason, the USC Product will provide a jolt of lightning to the Bears offense. The slew of weapons at his disposal will also make life significantly easier on him, although I expect him to make a healthy number of plays on his own, both in the running game and with the rocket launcher on his right shoulder.

Williams will follow in CJ Stroud's footsteps and be a Pro Bowler in year one. Likewise, he will also win the Offensive Rookie of the Year award and could lead the Bears to a Wild Card spot. Times they are a-changin' in Chicago.
