Kliff Kingsbury spent last season helping get Caleb Williams ready for the NFL. Had the Bears wanted, he could have had a front-row view of it this year.
After being fired following four seasons as the Cardinals’ head coach, Kingsbury spent last season as a senior offensive assistant with Williams’ USC Trojans. Part of his job was sharing his NFL experience with the former Heisman Trophy winner, who was the presumptive No. 1 pick in the draft.
“That was big for me, being able to listen to him and obviously build a relationship with him knowing the QBs he’s been around and similarities in some of the offenses that I’ve been in —or the offense I was in in college,” the Bears’ rookie quarterback said this week.
