Caleb Williams officially inactive for Bears, Tyson Bagent set to start against Packers

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams will sit out this week's matchup against the Green Bay Packers due to a lingering hamstring issue. Although he participated in team workouts earlier in the week, the organization officially ruled him out on Sunday morning.

Tyson Bagent is slated to take over starting duties under center for the contest. Bagent enters the game following a performance last week where he completed 25 of 34 passes for 268 yards and one interception during a victory against the New York Jets.

If Williams recovers in time for the following week, he is expected to make his return against the Atlanta Falcons.
