Bears rookie duo gets right to work effectively in 7-on-7 during the first rookie minicamp practice at Halas Hall.
Freddie Swain caught a short toss over the middle in 7-on-7 and the Caleb Williams passing era in Chicago had begun Friday at rookie camp.
"So, he won't be available to practice pretty much, all through offseason," Eberflus said. "We knew about this injury, this quad injury that he had at his college, and we want to get that process in terms of the whole rehab and everything so he's healthy for training camp. So that's where he's going to be."
Williams actually began working at learning the offense starting with the top-30 visit in early April prior to the draft. "You know he could do a lot of things that older quarterbacks may think is hard, effortlessly. You know he continues to improve every time I see and he's very smooth. You know he could throw the ball from any angle, body position, anywhere on the field, to any spot on the field. So you always have to be ready. Always have to be prepared anytime he is in the backfield, so it gives you the confidence that he's going to put it on you when you're giving him your best on the route.
"He's a 1-plus-1-equals-3 guy. He's an enhancer. He's a guy that brings out the best in people. You can certainly feel that in him within five minutes of meeting him."
