There has been a long-running conspiracy that the NFL scripts game. That tradition will seemingly continue in 2024 after people on social media believe they cracked it after the NFL posted this graphic with Bears rookie Caleb Williams.

The graphic features many of the NFL’s prominent players, such as Micah Parsons, Christian McCaffrey, Aaron Rodgers, Lamar Jackson, and others. However, the three most lined up in the back and the most visible are Josh Fallen, Patrick Mahomes, and Williams.

Now many think it means the NFL will be rigging games to get the Bears and Williams to the playoffs and even the Super Bowl.

“Josh Allen, The GOAT of football, and Patrick Mahomes all standing with each other. Football is back!” another said.

Looks like it’s all planned out. Williams over CMC and Mahomes over Allen in the championship games. Then Williams over Mahomes in the Superbowl. Can’t say there weren’t hints,” said one comment.

“Now why would the NFL put Caleb in the tier of Allen and Mahomes if he wasn’t on their talent level?” a third added.

A new era is upon us. The Bears have a QB being featured in an NFL post,” a fourth added.

Of course, though, it’s not like there’s ever been any proof of the conspiracy. Rather, it appears to be just a joke to most.

Here are some other responses about the NFL’s “script”:

Caleb Williams Needs To Succeed In Rookie Season

If Williams wants to have a solid career in the NFL and especially in Chicago he needs to have a good rookie season.

The Bears haven’t had a franchise quarterback in years and after failiung with Mitchell Trubisky, Justin Fields and going through a courosel of players, fans are done.

His first year will be played under a microscope by fans and media alike and for his own sake an needs to show why he was the No. 1 pick in the draft.
