What happened: Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was a full practice participant Thursday as he manages a hamstring injury. He said the hamstring has felt good, adding a full week of practice and game preparation brings stress on mind, body and spirit.

Why it matters: Chicago sits at 3-1 and its game-plan build depends on its starting quarterback taking full reps. Thursday's full session keeps that preparation on schedule ahead of the weekend. Final injury designations will confirm whether the week held up.

What to watch: Next is Friday's practice report and game-status designation. Another full session would signal clearance toward starting.
