Williams Exits Game with Injury
After exploding for 59 points in Week 1, the Chicago Bears suffered a rude awakening in Week 2; amidst heavy rain at Soldier Field and a relentless barrage of pressure schemes from the Vikings, the team completely lost its way, managing only three points and committing two turnovers. Even more concerning, their star quarterback, Caleb Williams, went down without contact during a run and had to be helped off the field.
The incident occurred while the Bears were in the red zone; Williams, wearing NFL jerseys No. 18, suddenly collapsed during an outside run and immediately clutched his right leg, clearly in pain. He was subsequently assisted off the field by staff and taken back to the locker room on a medical cart.
According to reporters on the scene, Williams was still wearing his Chicago Bears football jersey and walking on his own—without the aid of crutches—after the game. Prior to the injury, he had completed 15 of 26 passes for 138 yards and thrown one interception.
