Caleb Williams' hamstring injury recovery timetable revealed: Reports

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain during a game against the Minnesota Vikings at Soldier Field on September 20, 2026. Reports from ESPN indicate that Grade 2 strains generally necessitate a recovery period of three to four weeks. Coach Ben Johnson has classified Williams as week-to-week. Because the Bears did not place him on injured reserve, he is not required to miss the mandatory four games associated with that designation.
