The Chicago Bears really want to get to know their potential future quarterback.
It is fully expected that the Bears will select USC quarterback Caleb Williams with the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft.
Unsurprisingly, they want to get to know the potential future face of their franchise quite well.
The Bears reportedly had a casual meet-and-greet with Williams and Williams is also starting to get to know his potential future teammates.
It is also being reported that the Bears took Williams to dinner with two A-list celebrities in Los Angeles: rapper Quavo and actor Jamie Foxx.

This from FOX’s Peter Schraeger during an appearance on “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd:
“The pro day, which was a couple of weeks ago, they took him to a place called ‘Bird Streets’ in Los Angeles, which is a private members club,” Schrager said on “The Herd.” “It was kind of cool for the Bears guys — I spoke to sources there — to see how Caleb kinda operates in that LA scene. At that dinner, they’re there at a table. But there are also celebrities. I think Quavo from the Migos was there. And Jamie Foxx was there.
“The one thing that the Bears have told me in that interaction was ‘He moves quietly.’ He’s not a ‘Look at me!’ guy. If anything, he’s kinda quiet and a little bit more reserved than you would imagine from a Heisman Trophy, No. 1 overall pick, who made all this NIL (name, image, likeness) money.”
At this point, it would be one of the biggest shocks in NFL draft history if the Bears didn’t make Caleb Williams the first overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft.
DraftKings Sportsbook currently lists the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner at -8000 to be selected first overall.
