Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is coming off a stellar Week 16 performance, totaling 250 passing yards and two touchdowns, plus 30 rushing yards, in the thrilling overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers. Alongside head coach Ben Johnson, Williams has led the Bears to an 11-4 record and could clinch the NFC North with a Week 17 win and a Packers loss. He faces the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17, who have allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. In Week 16, the 49ers defense allowed 44-year-old quarterback Philip Rivers to total 277 passing yards and two touchdowns. With good weather expected, Williams offers upside as a QB2 against this injury-plagued 49ers defense.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams completed 19 of 34 passes for 250 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions in the thrilling 22-16 overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers. Williams entered the fourth quarter with under 125 passing yards and just nine completions, but a positive game script and the second-year quarterback's clutch playmaking saved the day. The Bears are now 11-4 and control their destiny to win the NFC North, and none of this would be possible without the massive leap Williams has taken in his second season. They face the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night in Week 17, which could be a hat-and-T-shirt game for Williams and the Bears. For fantasy purposes, Williams will continue to be a risky QB2 due to his low volume in Ben Johnson's offense.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams enters Week 16 with a lot on the line as they face division rival Green Bay Packers. Williams is in the midst of a breakout season, throwing for 3,150 yards, adding 21 touchdowns, and throwing six interceptions in 14 games. The 2024 first overall pick has averaged 18.7 fantasy points per game, ranking him QB9 on a per-game basis. This Packers defense has been strong all year, allowing the tenth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Injuries will factor for both sides as well, with the Bears down two key receivers in Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden III (ankle), while the Packers are without star Micah Parsons, who tore his ACL last week. Once again, volume will be the question surrounding Williams' fantasy stock this weekend, as he provides QB2 value against the Packers.
Dec 19, 2025 9:47 PM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams' passing volume remained a concern in Week 14, completing just 19 passes for 186 yards with two touchdowns and an interception in the 28-21 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Williams hasn't completed over 20 passes since Week 8, and his completion percentage of 57.8% ranks 33rd out of qualified quarterbacks. With a lack of volume, Williams will continue to be an inconsistent fantasy option moving forward. The matchup in Week 15 presents problems as well, as the Cleveland Browns have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. The winter conditions in Chicago are likely to be a factor as well, with single-digit temperatures expected and winds exceeding 25 mph. Williams is a risky start in Week 15, as he presents much more risk in this game than in past matchups.
Dec 13, 2025 10:56 AM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has continued to lead his team to victory despite less-than-ideal fantasy numbers. In Week 13, Williams completed just 47% of his passes for 154 yards and added a touchdown and an interception, but a strong run game and defensive play helped the Bears get their ninth win in their last ten games. Despite his inconsistent production, the second-year quarterback is averaging 18.9 fantasy points per game, which places him inside the top 10 at his position. His Week 14 matchup against the Green Bay Packers will be his toughest one yet, as they have allowed just the sixth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Not only that, top target Rome Odunze (foot) has been ruled out, and with how well the Bears have been running the ball, Williams could be in line for another low-volume outing in Week 14. Expectations should be lower for the breakout quarterback, who will need to utilize his rushing skillset to be productive against this tough Packers' defense.
Dec 6, 2025 10:01 AM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is hoping to lead the Bears to their ninth win in their last ten games when they face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13. Williams has ascended in his second season, completing 213 of 360 passes for 2568 yards, with 16 touchdowns and four interceptions in 11 games. Williams has also improved his rushing production in 2025, totaling 293 yards and three touchdowns on 56 carries. The 2024 first-overall pick is averaging 19.7 fantasy points per game, which puts him on pace to finish as the QB8 in fantasy this season. Philadelphia's pass defense has been middle of the pack this season, but has improved since acquiring Jaelan Phillips at the trade deadline. The key will be if Williams can play mistake-free football, as fantasy managers can feel comfortable starting him in Week 13.
Nov 27, 2025 7:48 AM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams gave fantasy managers a show during Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was mostly good for Williams, but he did have some bad moments as well. The worst of the day was when Williams fumbled in the end zone which led to a Steelers touchdown. Outside of that, Williams was mostly solid as he completed 19-of-35 passing attempts for 239 yards and three touchdowns in the win. He didn't throw any interceptions and his lone turnover was that fumble in the first half. There have been some bad games, but fantasy managers have mostly been able to trust Williams on a weekly basis. He'll head into a tough matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles next week. Fantasy managers should trust him as a QB2 for that one.
Nov 23, 2025 7:00 PM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams continues to do just enough for the Bears this season. While Week 11 wasn't Williams' best showing from a fantasy perspective, he's still in the midst of a breakout season. In 10 games, Williams has completed 194 of 325 passes for 2329 yards, with 13 touchdowns and four interceptions, while adding 272 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. He gets a nice matchup in Week 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have allowed the eighth most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. While Pittsburgh has been better as of late, they have strictly faced pocket quarterbacks, and their only game against a quarterback that is averaging more rushing yards per game than Williams is Justin Fields, who tormented their defense in Week 1. With no inclement weather expected and an ideal matchup, Williams is a low-end QB1 in Week 12.
Nov 22, 2025 9:39 AM EST

He also had 28 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Both of Williams' touchdowns came in the fourth quarter, capping off an impressive comeback win in messy weather at home. The 23-year-old did a good job spreading the ball around, and the Bears leaned on the passing attack more than expected, especially with Kyle Monangai and D'Andre Swift both healthy. Williams continues to rank as a solid fantasy QB1 in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings.
Nov 9, 2025 6:00 PM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is coming off a breakout performance in Week 9, finally snapping a bad two-game stretch with 38.7 fantasy points in a 47-42 win over Cincinnati. Through eight games, the 2024 No. 1 pick has completed 158 of 257 passes for 1,916 yards with 12 touchdowns and four interceptions, while also averaging 26 rushing yards per game and adding three total scores on the ground and through the air. Williams draws a favorable matchup in Week 10 against a New York Giants defense that has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. However, projected 25 mph winds could limit the passing game and cap his upside. Williams should still be viewed as a low-end QB1, but weather might keep his ceiling lower than hoped for.
Nov 8, 2025 10:54 AM EST

He also caught two passes for 22 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown. Furthermore, he rushed the ball five times for an additional 53 yards on the ground. It was an incredible day all around from Williams, who got involved as a passer, runner, and receiver, thanks to some creative play-calling from Ben Johnson. The former No. 1 pick is having a very impressive second pro season, establishing himself as a mid-to-low QB1 in fantasy football. He'll have an opportunity to feast against the 2-7 New York Giants next week.
Nov 2, 2025 5:59 PM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has posted a few dubs in recent weeks, but is looking to turn it around in Week 9. Williams will get a plus-matchup against a struggling Cincinnati Bengals who can't seem to stop anyone. Williams has shown an ability to pick apart bad secondaries considering his four-touchdown performance in Week 3. Since then, Williams has totaled two passing touchdowns with three interceptions, but desperately needs to rebound in Week 9. All the signs are pointing to Williams having success in this game. Fantasy managers should give him the benefit of the doubt and plug him in as a QB1.
Nov 2, 2025 9:01 AM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams could be poised for a strong game in Week 9 against a Cincinnati Bengals defense that has allowed the second-most passing yards in the league, only behind the Dallas Cowboys. Williams wasn't bad in Chicago's Week 8 loss at Baltimore, completing 25 of his 38 pass attempts for 285 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. However, since his four-touchdown outburst against the Cowboys in Week 3, he's completed 60.8% of his passes while averaging 230 passing yards to go with three total touchdowns and two interceptions. The 23-year-old has still been solid for fantasy purposes, ranking as QB15 in points per game, and gets a pristine matchup in Cincinnati on Sunday. Williams is ranked as RotoBaller's QB9 for Week 9.

Through seven games, the second-year signal-caller is averaging 18.3 fantasy points per game, ranking as the QB14 on a per-game basis. He'll look to bounce back in Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Notably, they've given up big performances to Josh Allen, C.J. Stroud, and Patrick Mahomes. With improved weather conditions expected and a soft matchup ahead, Williams profiles as a low-end QB1 with bounce-back potential in Week 8.

With another soft matchup on deck and Chicago's offense clicking, Williams profiles as a strong mid-QB1 for Week 7.

Under new head coach Ben Johnson, Williams has started to showcase his full potential, helping Chicago ride a two-game win streak into Week 6. The 2024 first-overall pick will face the second-overall pick in Jayden Daniels on Monday Night Football, in what should be an exciting primetime matchup. The Commanders' defense has struggled to contain opposing quarterbacks, allowing the ninth-most fantasy points to the position and surrendering 20+ point outings to Geno Smith, Michael Penix Jr., and Jordan Love. With a favorable matchup and the potential for a shootout, Williams remains a locked-in QB1 for Week 6.
Oct 11, 2025 12:07 PM EST

Williams is averaging 23.8 fantasy points per game, ranking as the QB3 behind only Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. The arrival of head coach Ben Johnson has transformed the Bears' offense, and Williams is thriving in the system. Week 4 sets up as another strong spot. The Bears face the Las Vegas Raiders, who allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2024. This year, they've already surrendered a 115+ QBR in back-to-back weeks, most recently getting lit up by Marcus Mariota and the Commanders for 41 points on offense. With elite efficiency, rushing upside, and a favorable matchup, Williams is locked in as a high-end QB1 for Week 4. Expect his early-season dominance to continue in Las Vegas.

He's a top-12 option heading into Week 4 against the Las Vegas Raiders and should be started in most leagues.
Sep 21, 2025 8:26 PM EST
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is off to a promising fantasy start despite the team's 0-2 record. The 2024 first-overall pick is averaging 21.1 fantasy points per game, putting him on pace to finish as the QB10. A major part of his success has come on the ground, where Williams ranks fourth among quarterbacks in rushing yards and fifth in rushing fantasy points from the quarterback position. This week, Williams takes on the Dallas Cowboys and his former head coach, Matt Eberflus. While some worry that Eberflus' familiarity with Williams could pose problems, new Bears head coach Ben Johnson has a proven track record against the Dallas defensive coordinator. During his time with the Lions, Johnson's offenses topped 30 points in four of six meetings against Eberflus' defenses. Meanwhile, the Cowboys' defense has been a liability, giving up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks in both 2024 and 2025, while allowing the most rushing yards and touchdowns to quarterbacks in both seasons. In what projects to be a high-scoring affair, Williams profiles as a mid QB1 for Week 3.
