Caleb Williams Wins Award No One Saw Coming

-

Caleb Williams had an up-and-down rookie season, and he’s unlikely to win Offensive Rookie of the Year in a highly competitive class featuring Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix, Brock Bowers, and others. The favorite to take home the award is Jayden Daniels.

However, Williams isn’t leaving his first NFL season empty-handed. The Bears rookie quarterback was named the Most Stylish Football Player, an award decided by football fans worldwide through voting on the GQ Sports Instagram page. He beat out 31 other players, including his teammate Jaylon Johnson, whom he faced in the Final Four.

Known for his big personality since his college days, Williams is already making an impact in the NFL—both on and off the field.

Caleb Williams is unapologetically himself.

Last year’s winner was Eagles WR DeVonta Smith, but Caleb Williams has now taken the crown. One thing about Williams—he will always stay true to himself, no matter what. While some fans and media have spun this as a negative, there’s no denying that he’s a star in his own right. Now, with the spotlight of playing in Chicago—one of the NFL’s biggest markets—his profile is only growing.

Imagine if Williams takes the next step under Ben Johnson in Year 2. His popularity will soar, and GQ awards will be just the beginning of his success.

@Bears57 – I disagree on a lot of that. Caleb does hold the ball, I agree on that. But I think a lot of that is due to Ryan Poles and / or Eberflus – failing to provide him with a coach who teaches NFL skills properly. I think Waldron and staff completely let the kid down. We’ll see. If he doesn’t get ball out quicker under Johnson, I’ll change my mind. But let’s also expect our OL to hold blocks for at least 3 seconds if we want to establish anything better than a short passing game. It takes… Read more »

I prefer Daniels’ hair. It’s more my style. Sorry Caleb, perhaps in another life and universe.

I mean…I wouldn’t say “nothing”. He did constantly throw his head back like a 5 year old when a play didn’t go his way. He was caught on camera laying down on the bench pouting because the line couldn’t hold a blitz for 5 seconds. He did repeatedly take sacks at crucial times and lose crucial field position then take his sweet ass time getting the next play off costing the team crucial time off the clock along with the crucial points from field goals. He did register several games with a QB rating under 50 for the first 3… Read more »
