Windy City Gridiron on Caleb Williams

Williams poised for Year 2 breakout under Johnson with elite upside trajectory.

Year 2 of Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams should produce even more fireworks; Williams' first season under Johnson had ups and downs, but his late-game heroics and big-play ability aren't easy to teach. Consistency from down to down will be a point of emphasis early in the season, but Year 3 has been home to some of the bigger breakouts when looking at the NFL's current elite quarterbacks. Williams holds the keys to the kingdom for this team, and there's little reason to doubt him taking the next step to stardom in 2026.
