When Caleb Williams proclaimed, “My football GOAT is Aaron Rodgers!” back in March, it might have felt out of the blue. Fast forward five months and the Bears’ rookie QB is out to prove he’s worthy of that lofty praise. On Saturday, 18th August, making his debut on Soldier Field in the preseason game, Williams played like he was channeling the Green Bay legend himself. Especially when he flipped the switch with a jaw-dropping pass. Talk about making an entrance!

But he is not just winning fans in Chicago; he’s catching the eye of Cowboys’ WR CeeDee Lamb too. The wideout couldn’t help but gush on an Instagram story, captioning a shot of Williams, “@ayeeecaleb Love it youngin.” And why not? With a scramble left and a contorted throw to rookie Rome Odunze for a 45-yard gain just before the two-minute warning, Williams showed he’s got the goods. It’s like he’s pulling a classic A-Rod move and giving Bears fans something to roar about.
