Expectations and momentum are already sky-high for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft, but Caleb Williams, will likely have his share of ups and downs as a rookie. The arrow won’t always point upward this year. The good news? He’s been set up for success in a way that recent first-round quarterbacks haven’t been before.

Whether that’s an arsenal of weapons, including receivers DJ Moore, Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze, or a potential top-10 defense, Williams has the potential to make an impact immediately as a rookie with the Chicago Bears.

Former Texas Longhorn, NFL quarterback and current NFL analyst Chris Simms of “Unbuttoned” NFL on NBC evaluates how every first-round rookie quarterback fared in their NFL preseason debuts. He explains how Caleb Williams “stole the show” in Chicago, which QBs he thinks could be the “real deal” and much more.

Caleb Williams will try to build more momentum in his second NFL preseason game. The Bears face the Cincinnati Bengals Saturday at 10 a.m. Pacific time on NFL Network.
