Starts in which Williams has not thrown an interception in his two seasons with the Bears, second in the NFL to the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts (24) during that span. Williams has thrown 45 TD passes and 12 interceptions, a 3.6-to-1 TD-to-interception ratio that is the second highest by any quarterback with at least 500 attempts since the 1970 NFL/AFL merger behind Aaron Rodgers (4.3).

Rushing TDs scored by D’Andre Swift this season, eclipsing the eight he had as a Lions rookie in 2020 for the most in his career. Swift rushed for two TDs Sunday night and gained 54 yards, reaching the 1,000-yard mark this year for the second time. His 1,047 yards are just two shy of his personal best 1,049 with the Eagles in 2023.
