Every year brings a new installment of the Madden video game series. Some fans eagerly await it, while others feel the yearly release cycle is too frequent. Regardless of where you stand, there’s no denying the hype that surrounds Madden every single year.
Star Bears Players in Madden
What makes Madden even more fun is getting to play with star players from your favorite team. For Chicago Bears fans, this has included iconic players like Devin Hester, who once boasted an electrifying 99 speed rating. This year, several Bears players look set to stand out in Madden 26, but none more than quarterback Caleb Williams.
Signature Jump Pass Moment
Williams, coming off a strong rookie season, is expected to be one of the most popular players in Madden 26. Last year, he was a highly usable quarterback, where players could develop him into a true star.
In Madden 26, Williams makes a memorable appearance in the trailer with his signature jump pass—a move reminiscent of his college and rookie NFL highlights. The way he jumps in the air almost brings to mind the iconic Michael Jordan pose. The trailer shows Williams rolling out of the pocket and delivering a jump pass on the run, capturing his dynamic playstyle.

A Rare Bears Quarterback Spotlight
It’s exciting to see a Bears quarterback featured in the Madden trailer, something we haven’t seen from recent quarterbacks like Mitchell Trubisky or Justin Fields. While Fields appeared last year as (get this) a kick returner—albeit in a Steelers uniform—it’s great to see Williams getting the spotlight he deserves.
Seeing Caleb Williams get some love in the Madden trailer is a treat for Bears fans, and it hints at how fun he’ll be to use in Madden 26. Whether you love or hate the yearly Madden cycle, one thing is clear: this year, Bears fans have a quarterback to be excited about.
Anyone see the alternate covers?
Will this make Caleb’s growing number of critics upset or happy?
