The last time fans saw Caleb Williams on an NFL field, he was riding off on a cart in Week 2. On Sunday, he's expected to be back under center.

The Bears plan to start Williams in Atlanta after he missed three games with a torn hamstring, sources told ESPN and NFL Network. He got through a full week of practice with no setbacks and took the starter reps. Officially he's listed as questionable, but coach Ben Johnson called him "on track."

Williams is clearly fired up. He reposted a TikTok celebrating his comeback that included a clip of Carmy from The Bear (yes, Chicago's favourite fictional chef) saying something "flicked a switch" in him, ESPN reported. The video also replayed some of the criticism Williams got as he left the field on that cart.

The wild part: Chicago went 2-1 without him, using Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent while missing several other starters. Now the Bears get their QB back and see how high this thing can go.

Kickoff is Sunday at 11 a.m. MT.
