JUST IN: In an unexpected location, Caleb Williams keeps his Heisman Trophy.

In an unexpected location, Caleb Williams keeps his Heisman Trophy.

At least in the background, quarterback for the Chicago Bears Caleb Williams appears to be taking cues from Patrick Mahomes’ playbook. On Thursday, footage of Williams practicing behind-the-back tosses the day before surfaced online. Williams was doing this action less than a week after the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs successfully executed the manoeuvre in a real-life preseason game.

Williams may be merely amusing himself here. Ultimately, we witnessed Mahomes performing this in a preseason game only a few years before to seeing it in a real game. The youngster is presumably more concerned with honing the movements he’ll employ in a game, and he’s shown he has a lot of resources at his disposal. Williams, who was selected first overall in the April draft, has already been selected to start at quarterback for Chicago in 2024.

Following what Caleb Williams did during the Chicago Bears’ 27-3 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois, on Saturday, fans were expressing the same sentiments. Williams ran for a score in the game and completed 6/13 for 75 yards. Although Williams’ numbers don’t immediately catch your attention, there were a few incredible moments that did. Rome Odunze received a long throw from Williams along the sideline during one such play. Williams completed the throw on that play after spinning around backwards and rolling to his left.

Williams’ other standout performance was when he whirled to elude pressure and raced in for a touchdown.

For many fans, Williams’s spinning motion on both plays was reminiscent of Patrick Mahomes. Supporters couldn’t help but see the parallels.

Even though Williams resembled Mahomes in those plays, and a narrative like this adds to the excitement, supporters should still attempt to maintain perspective. The Bears started the game with three straight 3-and-outs, demonstrating their continued difficulty moving the ball. The idea is, those kinds of plays might be necessary for the Bears to succeed offensively. If not, their offensive output might simply be constrained when the regular season starts.
