Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams reached a milestone in his career Sunday, and he broke an NFL record in doing so.
Williams, playing in his 31st career game for the Bears, has now attempted 1,000 passes in his NFL career, hitting that mark in the first quarter of the game.
On those 1,000 passing attempts, Williams has thrown just 12 interceptions, and according to Fox Sports, that broke an NFL record for fewest picks in the first 1,000 passes of a career, eclipsing Jacoby Brissett’s 14.
Naturally, Williams’ 1,000th career pass was a beauty, as he dropped in a touchdown to D.J. Moore to give the Bears a 14-0 lead over the Brons.
Williams has now thrown for 40 touchdowns in his career after the pass to Moore, and he came into the game with 6,449 passing yards in his first two NFL seasons.
