Caleb Williams connects with Joe Thuney after trade

Caleb Williams, the young quarterback for the Chicago Bears, recently reached out to veteran offensive lineman Joe Thuney after Thuney joined the team through a trade. The Bears are focused on improving their offensive line, which allowed a league-high 68 sacks last season. To bolster the protection for Williams, the Bears made strategic moves in the offseason. They hired new head coach Ben Johnson and traded for Thuney and Jonah Jackson before free agency began. Thuney, a multiple-time All-Pro player, has experience blocking for top quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady. In their first conversation, Thuney expressed excitement about playing with Williams. He mentioned that he looks forward to sharing insights he gained from his time with Mahomes and Brady. Thuney believes these lessons can help Williams develop in his second year as a quarterback. The Bears are optimistic about Williams' potential with Johnson as coach and skilled players, like Thuney, on the team. With the right support and guidance, Williams may have the chance to thrive in Chicago.
