The Chicago Bears once again found a way to break their fans hearts in the final moments of a game. It has seemingly happened nearly every week for Chicago at this point. However, rookie Quarterback Caleb Williams is showing that he may be the real deal, no matter what coaching staff is around him.
Williams, however, didn’t appreciate one major aspect of the game, and let the reporters know about it after the game.
“Just Put It That Way” Bears’ Caleb Williams Unleashes After Ugly Moment Vs Lions
Caleb Williams took a vicious hit to his lower extremities during the second half of Thursday’s game against Detroit after trying to extend the play:
His left knee buckled, and it initially looked like he might have suffered a significant knee injury. Fortunately, Williams would be checked out and returned to the game without missing an offensive snap.
After the game, Caleb Williams made it known he was not a fan of the hit he took from Detroit Lions linebacker Jack Campbell.
“Um, knee’s fine,” Williams told reporters via Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk. “Yeah, I—that play was funky. Just put it that way. I don’t really—you know, I didn’t really appreciate the play. He just kind of dove straight at my knee. So I didn’t really get that. Definitely kind of frustrated about that one, just ’cause you know, whatever. Yeah, knee’s good. Nothing wrong with it. Think I just got a bruise. But the play was—the play was funky.”
Here is a video of the play:
