Bears | Caleb Williams sharp against Bills Mon Aug 18, 12:02 AM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams completed six of his 10 pass attempts for 107 yards and a touchdown in the preseason game against the Buffalo Bulls Sunday, Aug. 17.
| Footballguys view: As NFL.com's Christian Gonzales suggested, we got a preview of how the Bears' offense could look with new head coach Ben Johnson and Williams. The second-year QB had an impressive first drive, connecting with TEs Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet on back-to-back plays. Williams found Loveland again for an 18-yard gain. Facing a third-and-5, Williams threw a dart at Olamide Zaccheaus, who used his speed to get past two Buffalo defenders for a 36-yard touchdown. Williams looked confident in Johnson's play-calling, and we all got a taste of what the pairing of Johnson and Williams might do for us. |

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze was 'all over the field' and 'in sync' with QB Caleb Williams during practice Wednesday, Aug. 13, according to Brendan Sugrue of BearsWire.
| Footballguys view: Williams and the Bears pass offense is likely to have some growing pains in September. If there's one player who can still outperform ADP during that stretch, it's Odunze, whose price hasn't moved up that much even though it appears that he, not DJ Moore, will be the #1 receiver this season. |

Chicago Bears RB Kyle Monangai ran six times for a team-best 30 yards in the preseason opener Sunday, Aug. 10 against the Miami Dolphins, and he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Monangai appears to have moved ahead of Roschon Johnson as the #2 back. Johnson is battling a foot injury, but there were already signs that the seventh round rookie would be the backup to D'Andre Swift before the injury. The team did bring Jamaal Williams in for a visit, but he left without a contract and is now visiting Miami, who just lost Alexander Mattison for the season. Monangai should be on your late round target list. |

Williams could be signed before the start of the regular season by some team, maybe the Bears, but has little fantasy value. |
