Bears head coach Ben Johnson said the team will “go back to the basics” in offseason work with QB Caleb Williams.

Johnson in his first year as the Bears’ head coach will get the chance to work with his franchise quarterback this offseason. Williams is “very comfortable” in shotgun formation, so Johnson said they will “work to see the comfort level under center” to further open up the offense. As last year’s No. 1 overall pick, Williams struggled at times and finished 3,541 passing yards while taking a whopping 68 sacks. Now he gets to build from the ground up with an offensive-minded head coach in Ben Johnson. Bears fans will be excited to hear about head coach and franchise quarterback working closely together leading into the season.
