Caleb Williams A High-Risk Play For Week 2
3 months agoThis Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams presents a high-risk, high-reward option as he faces off against the high-scoring Houston Texans. Williams aims to bounce back from a rough Week 1, where he completed just 14 of 29 passes for 93 yards and failed to throw a touchdown. His average depth of target was 8.0 yards, placing him in the middle tier among quarterbacks for the week. While his debut performance was underwhelming, it's not unexpected for a rookie quarterback, and the presence of a strong defense can be a significant asset for the top pick. However, Williams faces additional challenges this week with key playmakers Keenan Allen (heel) and Rome Odunze (knee) listed as questionable. Williams will have only one reliable target in DJ Moore if both other wide receivers are unavailable. With the spotlight on him in Houston, Williams might struggle to keep pace with C.J. Stroud and could make mistakes under pressure. For now, Williams isn't a strong start outside of superflex leagues. Instead, let him develop on your bench and focus on his long-term potential. As he gains experience, his value could rise, making him a worthwhile investment for the future.
