Caleb Williams drops 1-word reaction to Bears rookie Luther Burden III's "Same shi different toilet" message

Caleb Williams is expected to have a bigger role in his second season with the Chicago Bears. The talented quarterback is coming off a tumultuous rookie campaign under Matt Eberflus and Thomas Brown, only winning five games with the NFC North franchise.

Chicago still has an intriguing roster that can make some noise in the 2025 season, especially after another busy offseason. Luther Burden III, the second pick of the 2025 NFL draft for the Bears, is set to start his professional career under Ben Johnson and alongside Williams.

The No. 39 pick shared a series of pictures on Instagram ahead of his rookie campaign.

"same shi different toilet," the former Missouri wide receiver captioned the post, which included a photo of NBA legend Allen Iverson.

In 38 college games, Luther Burden III recorded 192 passes for 2,263 yards and 21 touchdowns.

He landed on a team with a talented quarterback, but a solid wide receiver room, which includes DJ Moore and Rome Odunze. Burden appears to be the WR3 at this moment.

After a remarkable tenure with the Detroit Lions, Ben Johnson arrived in Chicago with high expectations. The Bears have had multiple head coaches and quarterbacks who have been unable to succeed at Soldier Field, which is why many are excited about the Williams-Johnson pairing.

Caleb Williams shares his thoughts on Ben Johnson

After a rocky rookie season, Caleb Williams is eager to bounce back and unlock his potential. Ben Johnson is expected to develop the former USC Trojans quarterback, given his prior record.

Speaking about the former Lions coach at Fanatics Fest, Williams said:

"Yeah, I don't want to give you too many details or insight on Ben Johnson. Ben Johnson is great, and it's not just Ben Johnson. We have a young staff/old staff."

"We have a bunch of experience, a bunch of new energy provided from the coaches and players and things like that. … He uses some choice words every day towards me. He's tough, and I love him. He's awesome. It's been great being around him. We hang out in his office, and we just have lunch sometimes, things like that."
