How good was Caleb Williams as a rookie?
Expectations were sky high for Chicago’s signal caller after they drafted him with the #1 overall pick, added playmakers like Keenan Allen, Gerald Everett, D’Andre Swift, and Rome Odunze to the offense, and tapped Shane Waldron, one of the most highly regarded offensive coordinators on the market, to lead the unit. Many in the media argued that Williams was stepping into a historically good situation for a QB selected #1 overall.
Offseason optimism quickly turned into a real-life dumpster fire, however.
- Gerald Everett was clearly washed up and managed only 36 receiving yards (this should not have been a surprise).
