Report: Bears QB Caleb Williams expected to start against Falcons
The Bears plan to start Caleb Williams against the Atlanta Falcons, ESPN's Ian Rapoport reported on Saturday.
Williams has been sidelined since Chicago's Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings after suffering a hamstring injury.
The third-year quarterback sustained the injury on a scramble deep in Vikings territory with about 7 1/2 minutes remaining.
Williams was initially listed as questionable after taking part in a full week of practice, but he was cleared to play after passing hamstring stress tests.
Through two games this season, the 24-year-old has thrown for 407 yards, two touchdown passes and one interception.
Chicago enters its matchup against Atlanta with a 3-2 record, good for second in the NFC wild card.
