Caleb Williams' rookie season with the Chicago Bears was marred by disappointment, culminating in a 4-2 start that quickly fell apart. A heartbreaking Hail Mary loss to the Washington Commanders highlighted the struggles, with coach Matt Eberflus' decisions coming under fire from players, including Williams. Eberflus was later dismissed after a Thanksgiving defeat where he failed to manage the clock effectively, reflecting the chaos within the organization. Williams' final stats included 3,541 passing yards, 20 touchdowns, and 68 sacks, indicating a tumultuous season ahead of his second year.
