Chicago Bears new rookie quarterback Caleb Williams is undeniably one of the most elite athletes in the world as he was just selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, but he quite clearly is not a good baseball player.
This week, a video surfaced showing Caleb Williams taking batting practice with the Chicago Bears. In the video, Williams took a few swings off of a tee in a batting cage. But based on his swing, it’s pretty clear that he does not have a lot of experience swinging a baseball bat.
Williams is swinging the bat and moving his feet much more like he is swinging a golf club rather than a baseball bat. Needless to say, it did not look good or athletic.

“It’s crazy how baseball can make everyone un athletic,” Marty Mush of Barstool Sports said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.
The video quickly went viral as people had a lot to say about his swing.
I play golf like a baseball player. This guy plays baseball like a golfer. Lower half looks like he’d be good at golf no lie https://t.co/HU6uAXM8ax

Williams might be one of the best football players on the planet, but he quite clearly should not consider taking up baseball in the future.
