The first encouraging sign was the Bears calling it a hamstring instead of a knee or Achilles injury. From there, Terrence Tomlin of The Bigs reported Williams was walking around the locker room after the game with a 'very lite' limp and no brace. A few hours later, Mike Florio was speculating that it might only be a Grade 1 strain.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalInjury

Williams' hamstring strain avoided major injury; week-to-week status, no short-term IR.

Williams suffered a left hamstring strain in Week 2 against Minnesota and avoided major injury; the Bears called it a hamstring rather than a knee or Achilles injury, and he was observed walking around the locker room with a 'very lite' limp and no brace post-game. The MRI determined he 'avoided major injury' with head coach Ben Johnson calling him 'week to week,' and the team did not place him on short-term IR, meaning he could practice within four weeks. Speculation suggested it might only be a Grade 1 strain, with the source noting that missing even less time than a 4-6 week injury window would be 'a straight up miracle.'
