Bears Plan Major Offseason Overhaul for QB Caleb Williams

The Chicago Bears are looking to turn around their fortunes after a disappointing 5-12 season, marked by a 10-game losing streak, and have appointed former Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson as head coach. Central to their strategy is the development of rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, who faced difficulties due to poor coaching and a lack of protection, evidenced by being sacked 68 times last season. The Bears aim to bolster their offensive line, with targets like LSU's Will Campbell and Texas' Kelvin Banks Jr. as potential draft picks to secure Williams' safety. Additionally, the team hopes to enhance its receiving corps, considering Miami's Xavier Restrepo as a possible third-round pick to provide more weapons for Williams. Despite the challenges, there is optimism that Johnson's offensive strategies will lead to improved performance. The Bears' offseason decisions will be crucial in determining their success and Williams' growth as a franchise quarterback.
