Bears quarterback Caleb Williams signed his rookie contract Tuesday, a source said, eliminating any unnecessary drama heading into training camp.
It came just in time — rookies reported Tuesday for orientation.
Williams is expected to make $39.4 million over four seasons with a fifth-year option the Bears need to decide on after three full seasons. He’ll get a $25.5 million signing bonus.
Bears rookies and injured players reported to Halas Hall on Tuesday. As the clock ticked down toward the report date, Williams and receiver Rome Odunze were two of five first-round picks — all in the top 18 selections — yet to ink their deals.
