Caleb Williams Fires Back After Ja'Marr Chase Misnames Him on McAfee Show

The Bears quarterback answered by posting a Week 9 reminder of his game-winning strike against Cincinnati.

Overview

  • During a Super Bowl radio row appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Ja'Marr Chase repeatedly referred to Chicago quarterback Caleb Williams by the wrong name.
  • Williams responded on social media by reposting an image from the Bears’ Week 9 win that captured Chase’s frustration after Cincinnati surrendered a late lead.
  • In that game, Williams hit rookie Colston Loveland for a 58-yard touchdown in the final minute to secure a 47-42 victory in Cincinnati.
  • Show hosts suggested Chase had blended Williams’ name with Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels, with most outlets hearing “Caleb Daniels” and one report transcribing “Caleb Andrews.”
  • Coverage places the exchange in the context of Williams’ 2025 late-game resume and Chicago’s success, while noting no apology or further escalation from Chase has been reported.
