Caleb Williams praised rookie tight end Sam Roush during an appearance on 'New Heights.' While Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet lead the Bears' tight end room, Roush, drafted in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, brings potential as both a blocker and receiver. He finished with 545 receiving yards and two touchdowns in college, and Williams is excited about Roush's contributions. The Bears, who are already featuring Loveland and Kmet, could see increased use of Roush in 13 personnel schemes, though his initial playing time might be limited. Williams emphasized the advantages of having multiple tight ends who can contribute in various roles.
