C.J. Stroud burst on the NFL scene last year, turning in one of the best rookie seasons for a quarterback in league history. He took a three-win Texans team from the year before and not only led them to a 10-win season and the division title but also a playoff win. The Bears are hoping for similar results from Caleb Williams, whom they drafted with the first overall pick from this year's draft. These two young signal callers will face off in prime time tonight.
The Bears-Texans games kicks off tonight starting at 8:20 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. PT). It's available to watch nationally on NBC or stream on Peacock.
