The Chicago Bears will only go as far as Caleb Williams takes them, and the team reportedly is busy putting a plan in place for the rookie signal-caller ahead of the 2024 campaign.

"The Bears are working overtime to get him used to taking the ball under center, shotgun, play-action, all the nuances of their NFL-style offense, which he didn't always use at USC," ESPN's Jeremy Fowler said during Sunday's SportsCenter. "I'm told he's really taken to that."

It was long assumed well before the 2024 NFL draft that Williams would be the No. 1 pick, which allowed him to prepare for his specific role with the Bears.
