Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams took another major step toward returning for Week 6, practicing fully Thursday for the second consecutive day as Chicago prepares to visit the Atlanta Falcons.

Williams remains on the injury report with the right hamstring issue that has sidelined him for three straight games. His Wednesday designation was an estimate because the Bears held a walkthrough, but Thursday brought another full-participation listing. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport highlighted the update on X, formerly Twitter, after the Bears’ official communications account released the team’s latest practice report to the platform.

The following story is in development and will be updated shortly.
