Matt Eberflus on Caleb Williams as QB1:
“No conversation needed. He’s the starter.”
Caleb Williams On becoming the Bears leader:
“To be a great leader, you have to learn how to follow first. So right now I’m following all the vets, I’m following all the coaches, I’m listening - having both ears open and my mouth shut - just kind of sitting back listening. When I get to the point of when I learn everything, when I learn the ways of how we do it, the culture, the playbook and what the offensive line, wide receivers are all doing, running backs and tight ends, things like that, then you can start taking the lead.”
Rome Odunze On his mindset in Bears’ WR Room
“What I want in a wide receiver room is for everyone to think they are WR1. That’s the mindset I bring to a WR room. It’s a friendly competition. I want the best for the brother beside me. They’ve been doing it for a long time, so I got a ways to catch up here, but I’m gonna provide a different skillset and different versatility to the offense that I hope compliments their play.”
