All three rookie quarterbacks won on the same day Sunday, the first time that’s happened all season. Here’s how the Bears’ Caleb Williams, the Commanders’ Jayden Daniels and the Broncos’ Bo Nix fared individually:

No. 1 overall pick: Bears QB Caleb Williams

Williams posted by far the most efficient outing of his career against the Rams, going 17-for-23 for 157 yards, one touchdown and a 106.6 passer rating. In one game, he raised his career passer rating from 65.3 to 72 — though it still ranks 30th among qualifying quarterbacks, ahead of Nix, the Colts’ Anthony Richardson and the Panthers’ benched Bryce Young.
