Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is slated to return to the starting lineup on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons following a three-game absence caused by a hamstring injury, according to Fox News and NBC Sports. Both networks reported that Williams participated fully in team practice sessions throughout the week.

During Williams's time away from the field, Chicago went 2-1, winning consecutive games before falling short last week, both outlets reported. The Bears enter Sunday's contest with a 3-2 record.

NBC Sports reported that the Bears designated Williams as questionable on Friday, though the quarterback signaled his return through a social media post later that day. Fox News, which noted that Williams was originally injured on September 20 against the Minnesota Vikings, highlighted concerns from an orthopedic surgeon warning that returning too quickly carries a risk of aggravating the injury.
