Caleb Williams Disappoints Fans in NFL Debut Despite Bears' Comeback Win vs. Titans

Caleb Williams may be in his Rex Grossman era.

Grossman famously won plenty of games for the Chicago Bears even when he played poorly thanks to the team's special teams and defense, and that is exactly what Williams did in his first career start.

Chicago defeated the Tennessee Titans 24-17 on Sunday in Soldier Field despite facing a 17-3 halftime deficit. The No. 1 overall pick didn't play well at 14-of-29 passing for 92 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions, but the defense led the way for the victors.

Tyrique Stevenson's pick-six in the fourth quarter proved to be the game-winner after Jonathan Owens' touchdown on a blocked punt turned the momentum.
