Williams completed 17 of 23 passes for 157 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions and rushed five times for 12 yards in the Bears' 24-18 win over the Rams on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Chicago.
Williams' 73.9 percent completion rate was his best yet over his first four games, but his passing yardage total was only better than the paltry 93 he generated during his NFL debut against the Titans in Week 1. The rookie first overall pick did record his long-awaited first scoring connection with DJ Moore, hitting the veteran wideout from nine yards out late in the third quarter to extend the Bears' lead to 17-9 at the time. Williams did bounce back from consecutive multi-turnover performances as well by remaining free of any miscues, an encouraging sign as he heads into a favorable Week 5 home matchup against the Panthers next Sunday.
