No matter how enormous the expectations are on Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, and how wholeheartedly he has embraced and escalated them, he might need a little time to get rolling.

That was the case Saturday in a preseason game against the Bengals, and it was well worth the wait.

After stalling the first three possessions, Williams ignited the offense with deep shots downfield near the end of the first half. The best of them was a beautiful ball down the left sideline to Rome Odunze for 45 yards.
