Some could say both Caleb Williams and J.J. McCarthy are about to start their first real NFL season in 2025. The Chicago Bears' quarterback had a tumultuous rookie season under Matt Eberflus and Thomas Brown, going through a campaign in which he didn't feel coached up and often wandered around to find out what he needed to do to improve his level.On the other end, McCarthy picked up a season-ending injury that postponed his rookie season for a whole year. He spent a lot of time with the offense and defense, soaking up as much as he could to return to the field in the best possible shape.With offensive-minded Ben Johnson as coach for Williams and a fully healthy McCarthy, this NFC North team could make a lot of noise this upcoming season. During Thursday's episode of "Good Morning Football," former running back Rashad Jennings, who played with Eli Manning on the New York Giants from 2014 through 2016, was asked about which young QB he was more intrigued by."I'm more intrigued with J.J," Jennings said. "Definitely give me J.J, 10th overall draft pick. I believe he's a special guy. I think that the reason why the Minnesota Vikings let go of Sam Darnold, the reason why the Minnesota Vikings did not pick up Aaron Rodgers is because of who J.J. McCarthy is."And you know, I've mentioned this before, but J.J. McCarthy, mind you, he was coached up in college by Jim Harbaugh. Now he's passed over to Kevin O'Connell. I think that's a good combination."Justin Jefferson sets clear expectations for J.J. McCarthyAfter creating terrific tandems with Kirk Cousins and Sam Darnold, Justin Jefferson will try to do the same with J.J. McCarthy. The talented wide receiver has worked on his chemistry with the quarterback, as he expects big things from the Michigan product."I'm excited for J.J," Jefferson said on Saturday. "I'm excited to see what he's going to do for our team. I'm definitely expecting a lot from him. So, it's definitely going to be exciting, just being a leader of the team, being a captain of the team. Seeing him go through the injury process, and him you know just waiting patiently for his chance, he's going to do his thing."The Vikings come from a terrific 14-3 season, and they're eager to surpass that performance.
