Bears select Caleb Williams with No. 1 pick of 2024 NFL Draft

The Chicago Bears did what was expected of them, taking USC quarterback Caleb Williams with the first overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft. 

For months, the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner has been pegged to the Bears. It moved to a mortal lock when Justin Fields, the team's previous first-round pick in 2021, was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers last month. 

Now, with the pick officially in, a new face of the franchise enters the "Windy City," and Williams has the pedigree to turn the tides of the organization.
