Sun Sep 15 17:00:00 UTC 2024: ## Chicago Bears’ Caleb Williams Aims for First Rushing Touchdown Against Texans
**HOUSTON, TX -** The Chicago Bears, led by quarterback Caleb Williams, head into their Week 2 matchup against the Houston Texans hoping to build on their Week 1 victory against the Tennessee Titans. While Williams secured his first NFL win in that game, the focus now shifts towards his rushing potential against a Texans defense that struggled against rushing quarterbacks in Week 1.
Williams, known for his rushing prowess during his time at USC, is expected to get more opportunities to showcase his legs against the Texans. This comes after the Texans allowed a significant rushing performance from Anthony Richardson in their Week 1 matchup.
“We see the Texans struggling against rushing quarterbacks,” said Juan Carlos Blanco, a Catena Media contributor. “Matt Eberflus might give Williams a chance to get his first pro rushing touchdown when the Bears are in scoring position.”
The Texans, favored to win at home, are expected to lean heavily on veteran running back Joe Mixon, who had a workhorse performance in his team debut. However, a talented Bears pass defense is likely to keep Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud in check.
Another player to watch for is Bears wide receiver Tyler Moore. Despite a modest 36-yard performance in Week 1, Moore received a high number of targets and is expected to see more opportunities against a shaky Texans secondary.
The game between the Chicago Bears and the Houston Texans will air on Sunday Night Football at NRG Stadium.
