Former NFL quarterback and current NBC Sports analyst Chris Simms joined Kenneth Davis, Josh Schrock, and Alex Shapiro on the Under Center podcast. He explained why he ranked USC’s Caleb Williams as the 20th-best quarterback in the NFL, the highest he has ever ranked any rookie quarterback.
Bears Wire discussed why summer training camp is really important for Caleb Williams:
“Not only are they learning Shane Waldron’s new offense, but they have several new players who are considered impact guys. That starts with quarterback Caleb Williams, as well as receivers Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze, running back D’Andre Swift, tight end Gerald Everettt and offenisve linemen Coleman Shelton and Ryan Bates. Finding chemistry, especially in a new offense, is a big key during the early stages of camp. All of these guys are going to be playing together for the first time.
“Out of them all, Williams has the most pressure to succeed, even as a rookie. He’s already the franchise quarterback, and he hasn’t taken a single snap in the NFL yet. Although he was incredible in college, there is going to be a learning curve.”
