Bears rookie QB Caleb Williams named co-captain amid 'growing pains' chatter

foxnews.com

Caleb Williams has been named co-captain of the Chicago Bears, the latest honor for the Heisman Trophy winner and No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

While the respect Williams has garnered from his teammates is clear, it should be noted that the Bears have A LOT of captains — Williams will be sharing the honor with seven other players.

They are: receiver DJ Moore, tight ends Cole Kmet and Marcedes Lewis, cornerback Jaylon Johnson, linebackers TJ Edwards and Tremaine Edmunds and safety Kevin Byard.

It's also not terribly unusual for a rookie to be named captain of his NFL team. Last year, rookie QBs Bryce Young (Panthers), CJ Stroud (Texans) and Anthony Richardson (Colts) were all named captains of their respective teams.
