A part of the first preseason game of the year,
the Bears close out the preseason Thursday night against the
Kansas City Chiefs, who are the first team to play -- Sept. 5
against the Baltimore Ravens -- in the 2024 regular season.
Eberflus said Williams has done enough to prove the Bears right
about their selection of the former Southern California
quarterback.
"He's compatible personality-wise, instinct-wise with people and
his willingness to learn. You know how some people, the first
time you meet them it's like, ‘Man, this guy is a know-it-all.'
You get that feeling," Eberflus said Tuesday.
"Not about any of you guys but it kind of turns you off, right?
He is not that way at all. He has tremendous success, you know,
Heisman (2023), first pick in the draft, very successful as a
college player. His willingness to learn is second to none. He
just wants to grab the information, learn and get better. When
he does have adversity, he rises to the challenge and that's
what you want from your quarterback."
