Caleb Williams hits major milestone vs. Jacksonville

Caleb Williams worked wonders on offense for the Chicago Bears in their Sunday matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, playing the most important role in propelling the team to a 35-16 win overseas.
The 2024 No. 1 overall draft pick very much looked the part as he completed 23 of his 29 passing attempts for 226 yards and 4 touchdowns with 1 interception. He also rushed for 56 yards on 4 carries.
It didn’t take long into the game before Williams tallied the same number of touchdowns as a rookie as Mitch Trubisky and Justin Fields did in their first NFL season with it only being Week 6. He is also the first quarterback to ever throw for 4 touchdown passes at Spurs Stadium.
This also marks just the 10th time since 2000 that a Bears quarterback has thrown for at least 4 touchdown passes in a single game. Some of the others to accomplish the same feat include Josh McCown, Justin Fields, Jay Cutler, Mitch Trubisky and Rex Grossman.
Here’s a look at some of Williams’ best plays from the victory:
4 TOT TUDDIES!

Williams and the Bears will aim to stay on the right side of the win column as they return back to the United States and continue their schedule against the Washington Commanders on Oct. 27.
