Bears predicted to ditch ex-USC QB Caleb Williams in 2027 or 2028 if 'major concerns' are not fixed | Sporting News

The Bears could be faced with a major crisis in the next few years when it comes to their quarterback, Caleb Williams, and whether he steadily improves.

Despite some eye-opening numbers, Williams was on a dysfunctional team that managed just one divisional win his rookie year and underwent a significant coaching staff overhaul.

This included Williams having to experience inept offensive coordinator direction alongside the friing of Matt Eberflus as the eventual 5-12 season wound down.

Former Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson took over as Williams' new coach ahead of this fall's NFL season.

Even with the potential continuity both men may build between each other, CBS Sports analyst Ross Tucker sees a possible dark future ahead for the former Heisman Trophy winner.

As a guest on Chicago's 670 The Score's "Mully and Haugh" morning show Friday, Tucker didn't hold back about Williams' glaring flaws.

I have major concerns about Caleb Williams, Tucker said.

It feels to me, like more often than not, he does the wrong thing.

This isnt a talent thing ...

I feel like he either gets really bad advice or his awareness rating on Madden needs to go down like 30 points.

Tucker then took it a step further.

Although the Bears finally sought at their best attempt to get the quarterback position correct, the former NFL offensive lineman said the Bears may need to make a risky decision, or as Tucker put it, "bet," if Williams isn't the answer in the Windy City.

Tucker's outlook comes shortly following reports about Williams and his dad, Carl, that surfaced from ESPN about how tumultuous Caleb Williams' draft process nearly became.

Nevertheless, it seems Williams is going to have more pundits like Tucker to prove wrong in the years ahead.

If Williams can, he could turn into the quarterback Bears fans have longed for the team's success to hinge upon.

Starting in September, Williams can continue his journey with a fresh start..
