Will the Bears starters play in the preseason finale against the Chiefs? It certainly sounds like Ben Johnson might be leaning that way.

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson praised Caleb Williams following his performance during the team's 38-0 preseason win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but acknowledged that the quarterback still has some room to grow.

This is a standard four verticals concept out of a 3x1 alignment, with the trips side of the formation to Williams’ left. Buffalo clouds the picture presnap, showing a single-high look with man coverage indicators across the board: Cornerbacks are parallel to the line of scrimmage, with their eyes on the receivers across from them.

Johnson acknowledged Williams has been well short of the 70% mark in practice but sees enough talent from which to build.

All eyes will be on Caleb Williams during his first game action under Ben Johnson when the Chicago Bears face the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, and the quarterback wants everyone to know he appreciates his new head coach's approach.

Williams completed 6 of 10 passes for 107 yards with a touchdown, no turnovers and no sacks,, and Johnson said after the game that Williams looked the way the Bears wanted him to look in live game action.
