Chicago Bears could face backlash for Caleb Williams’ status vs Packers

Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears teased a potential Caleb Williams return for Sunday’s game at the Green Bay Packers in Week 5.

Per multiple reports, the Bears made Williams inactive on Sunday morning as the quarterback recovers from the Grade 2 hamstring strain he suffered in Chicago’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2. Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent is expected to make his first official start since 2023 on Sunday.

There should be skepticism about the final injury report the Bears revealed on Friday. After returning to practice in a limited manner on Friday, Chicago listed Williams as questionable to play the Packers. Questionable means Williams would have been 50/50 to play the Packers. Doubtful meant it would have been unlikely for Williams to play.

Did the Chicago Bears give an accurate status on Caleb Williams?

Given the way Bears head coach Ben Johnson presented the situation, it never appeared publicly that Williams had a chance to play Green Bay, though the final injury report indicated it was more of a 50/50 chance.

Williams was seen warming up before the Bears’ contest against the Packers. There seems to be a good chance he’ll play next week against the Falcons.

Per Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network, Williams has been pushing to play against the Falcons, but his return to practice wasn’t good news for his chances to play Green Bay. Multiple sources told Garafolo that Williams was pushing to play against the Falcons.

So why did the Bears list Williams as questionable to play instead of doubtful? The integrity of Friday’s injury report should be questioned, because it doesn’t seem Chicago were seriously planning on Williams being available against the Packers.

If that were the case, Williams should have been listed as doubtful instead of questionable.
