Bears Want Caleb Williams to "Do Less"
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has become known for making spectacular plays outside the pocket deep down the field, but in the eyes of the coaches, it is a bit much, according to Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times. One of the main messages to Williams this offseason is to "do less," according to QBs coach J.T. Barrett. It's great that Williams can manufacture big plays when needed late in games, but the Bears' coaching staff wants to see more of the simple throws to build 300-yard passing performances on a more consistent basis. "We don't have to work as hard for our money," Barrett explained. "There's times where we could just work through our progression and get the ball out on time instead of having to create and extend plays." The 24-year-old former first overall pick out of USC took a step forward overall in Year 2 in 2025, but he finished last in the league with a 58.1% completion percentage, and he had 6.9 yards per pass attempt. Williams is already considered a clear top-10 fantasy QB going into Year 3, but if he can improve his efficiency, he has high-end QB1 potential in head coach Ben Johnson's offense in 2026 and beyond.
