In a thrilling display against the Cincinnati Bengals in the Chicago Bears’ second preseason game, quarterback Caleb Williams turned heads and caught the attention of Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Hill, who is no stranger to playing with top-tier quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes, couldn’t help but draw comparisons between Williams and the Kansas City Chiefs’ signal-caller. He was so impressed by Williams’ performance that he was moved to say, “Caleb Williams so nice he reminds me of…….”
While Hill may currently be catching passes from Tua Tagovailoa, it’s clear that Williams’ play on the field drew parallels to the dynamic style of Mahomes. Despite it only being the preseason, Williams showcased his talents with jaw-dropping plays that had the entire NFL community buzzing.
The game started off rocky for the Bears, with several early drives stalling out. However, Williams quickly turned things around and showed why he was the top overall pick in the draft. One particular highlight was a stunning 45-yard bomb to Rome Odunze, thrown with precision while on the move.
Not stopping there, Williams pulled off a play reminiscent of Justin Fields, combining his football IQ with his athleticism to scramble in for his first NFL touchdown. The resemblance to Mahomes didn’t go unnoticed, especially by Hill, who recognized the same flashy style and playmaking ability in Williams.
With laser-like throws and savvy decision-making, Williams has been making waves this preseason. Whether he’s facing off against a tough defense like the Bills or a second-string unit like the Bengals’, Williams has consistently put on a show. For a player of Hill’s caliber, who has seen firsthand what Mahomes is capable of, drawing comparisons between Williams and the Chiefs’ star quarterback is high praise indeed.
