Could Caleb Williams become highest paid QB in NFL history?
Caleb Williams is playing in the third year of his rookie contract signed in 2024. The Chicago Bears quarterback has emerged as one of the best young stars in the NFL and is already projected to secure a lucrative deal after his current one expires. However, the question remains if he’ll become the highest paid signal-caller in league history.
Williams deal is for four years worth $39,486,058 with a signing bonus of $25,537,132. Its average annual value is $9,871,515, and the team has a fifth-year option for 2028. He has lived up to expectations after Chicago selected him No. 1 overall out of USC.
The 2022 Heisman Trophy winner is coming off back-to-back strong performances. He completed 22-of-33 passes for 308 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions last Thursday in the 30-24 win over the New England. It came a week after recording 30-of-36 completions for 305 yards and one touchdown versus the Atlanta Falcons. Williams missed the previous three games due to a hamstring injury but has shown that he has fully recovered from it.

The Kansas City Chiefs star is followed by the Dallas Cowboys’ Dak Prescott, who raking in $60 million annually. The Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen is third at $55 million annually.
