A Week 6 return remains a possibility, not a confirmed clearance.

Caleb Williams is listed at QB on the Chicago Bears roster checked September 20, 2026. The official source lists the roster status as Active roster (ACT).

Statistics by season

UPDATED Updated Oct 5, 2026, 7:41 am EDT

Regular-season records. Totals use each recorded season once, even when team splits and a combined row are both shown. Rates are recalculated from the counted totals. A dash means a value is missing or cannot be calculated reliably; these records do not establish complete career coverage. The current-season row is as of the update time above and can differ from the season statistics section, which adds up box scores through the latest recorded final.
