Bears QB Caleb Williams reportedly has Grade 2 hamstring injury and could be sidelined for a month

The Chicago Bears face significant quarterback uncertainty after Caleb Williams sustained a Grade 2 hamstring injury during the final moments of their Week 2 defeat against the Minnesota Vikings. Head coach Ben Johnson acknowledged that his young passer faces an absence that could stretch up to a month, though the franchise officially lists him as week-to-week while keeping specifics hidden for competitive reasons.

Williams will definitely miss the upcoming matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Adding to the roster strain, reserve signal-caller Tyson Bagent remains stuck in concussion protocol without medical clearance to compete. Consequently, Case Keenum is positioned to take over starting duties against Philadelphia.

Despite the projected recovery timeline of three to four weeks, Johnson emphasized that his quarterback attacks rehabilitation aggressively and might outperform expectations.
