During a Sunday matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, Caleb Williams suffered a painful non-contact right hamstring injury while scrambling deep downfield. The Chicago Bears’ star quarterback immediately collapsed to the turf, clutching his leg in obvious agony. Medical personnel quickly rushed out to evaluate him.

Consequently, trainers had to cart a very emotional Williams off the field with a towel over his head. The young signal-caller was crying due to initial fears that his season was over. Fortunately, subsequent medical imaging revealed the injury was a relatively minor, week-to-week hamstring strain rather than a tear.

Unfortunately, the hamstring injury got him roasted online by former NFL players and fans. His behavior on that cart has now turned into the next viral meme.

Now he has to watch as many people create AI-generated videos of that moment and others from Sunday’s game.

New AI-Created Angle of Caleb Williams’ Injury Has Fans Losing Their Minds

An AI-generated video parodying Caleb Williams’ recent hamstring injury has gone viral on social media. The digital creation mockingly edits the Chicago Bears’ quarterback into a completely exaggerated, fictional medical scenario.

Specifically, the video opens with a hyper-realistic depiction of Williams collapsing dramatically onto the football field. It then abruptly transitions to show the young athlete crying about chipping his nail polish.

One of the members of the medical staff then says he just might be on his period as he pulls out a pad.

How social media reacted:

“This really A.I? Looks way too realistic,” one fan said.

“Bears fan, but damnit this shits funny,” a second fan added.

“People: if you don’t know if this is real or AI, get the fuck off of the internet,” a third fan stated.

“He just signed an endorsement deal with Playtex,” one final fan commented.

Caleb Williams is facing a week-to-week recovery timeline after undergoing an MRI on his right hamstring.

Fortunately, the diagnostic imaging confirmed that the Chicago Bears’ quarterback avoided a major structural tear or joint injury to his knee. The diagnosis came back as a relatively minor Grade 1 hamstring pull. Head coach Ben Johnson announced that Williams will not practice leading up to their Week 3 game.
