Latest news

  • Fantasy football matchup rankings: Upgrade Irving, downgrade Williams

    The most and least favorable matchups in the NFL for this week's games at the four key fantasy positions.

    ESPN · 3d ago

  • Williams completed 22 of 33 passes for 308 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while rushing five times for 18 yards in the Bears' 30-24 win over the Patriots on Thursday.

    Williams spearheaded another prolific performance for the Bears offense, leading his squad to another 30-point tally while eclipsing the 300-yard mark for the second time in five days. He tied his season high with 9.3 yards per attempt, and he accomplished his stellar numbers while focusing on a tight pool of five targets. The 2024 first overall pick's two touchdown passes went to Luther Burden (24 yards) and Colston Loveland (12 yards), marking Williams' first multi-TD tally since Week 1. Williams appears to be clicking on all cylinders in his second season in head coach Ben Johnson's aggressive offense, now having completed 71.0 percent of his passes for 1,020 yards through four games heading into a Week 8 road showdown with the defending champion Seahawks on Monday night, Nov. 2.

  • Williams completed 30 of 36 passes for 305 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions while adding four rushes for three yards in the Bears' 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    Making his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Williams opened the game looking like he hadn't missed a beat. The 2024 first overall pick completed his first 12 passes and didn't misfire much after that point while connecting with eight different targets overall. Williams hit Colston Loveland for his one touchdown pass and just narrowly missed a second scoring connection with the second-year tight end during a prolific afternoon overall. Williams looks back to full health and will get a quick opportunity to build on Sunday's stellar numbers in a Week 7 home matchup against the Patriots next Sunday.

  • Fantasy football Week 6 inactives: Jeremiyah Love, DJ Moore out

    Updated inactives and analysis based on the latest reports and official announcements leading up to kickoff.

    ESPN · Oct 18

  • Williams (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    It was reported Saturday that Williams was on track to both suit up and start Sunday in Week 6, and it is now official that he will be in uniform. While his starting assignment hasn't officially been confirmed, Case Keenum was designated as Chicago's third quarterback Sunday and Tyson Bagent is the only other signal-caller on the roster, so all signs point to Williams opening the contest under center.

    RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 18

  • Williams (hamstring) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons but is expected to start, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Williams' Week 6 status won't be officially confirmed until the Bears post their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, but the third-year quarterback will put an end to a three-game absence. He was listed as a full practice participant throughout the week, after the Grade 2 right hamstring tear he sustained in a Week 2 loss to Vikings kept him from practicing in full ahead of any of the prior three contests. Though Williams is ready to play Sunday, it's unclear if he'll be as active in the running game right away coming off the hamstring injury.

“Value” is market slot minus our slot: positive means the market lets you draft him later than our blend ranks him. Ranks blend our projection model with ADP at backtested weights, the receipts are on methodology.

Trade value: what to ask for Caleb

Our board has Caleb Williams at QB4, #85 overall in PPR, and the market drafts him at ADP 85.4 (QB10). The market undervalues him by about 6 picks, so do not sell at his ADP price. Ask for a player ranked around #85 on our board, not around his ADP. He projects to 299.5 points (floor 202.4, ceiling 362.8).

QBs in that range on our board right now: Jayden Daniels (#74, WSH), Matthew Stafford (#75, LAR), Jalen Hurts (#78, PHI), Brock Purdy (#84, SF), Trevor Lawrence (#92, JAX).
