Quarterback Caleb Williams is expected to make his return for the Chicago Bears in their game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Williams is expected to start after a full week of practice with no setbacks.

Williams has missed the last three games after suffering a Hamstring injury during the Bears' home opener against the Minnesota Vikings last month. Following the injury, coach Ben Johnson said Williams was on a week-to-week basis. He was expected to miss 3-4 weeks.
