Caleb Williams’ Silver Nail Polish in Bears’ Preseason win over Bills: Unveiling the Story | NFL News Times of India
Caleb Williams, the rookie quarterback for the Chicago Bears, attracted significant attention during the preseason win against the Buffalo Bills, not only for his on-field performance but also for his unique style choice – silver nail polish. This striking detail turned heads even before the kickoff.
Williams, the top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, threw for 130 yards, including a touchdown, and completed 6 of 10 passes in the short time he was on the field at Soldier Field. The Bears cruised to a resounding 38-0 victory over the Bills.
However, it was Williams’ silver nails that caught the eye of spectators and the media alike upon his arrival at Soldier Field. This distinct fashion statement is quite standard for the former USC quarterback who began painting his nails during his final year in high school. He has often mentioned that this was a tribute to his mother, a professional nail artist.
On a personal level, while Williams has not openly discussed his sexuality, it is known that he has been dating Alina Thyregod since November 2023. Thyregod, his high school sweetheart, has previously worked with People magazine. Prior to this, Williams was involved with Valery Orellana, a journalism student.
Asides his unique style, William’s fieldwork is considerable. His control over the offense during the two-series against the Bills was impressive. This performance has seen Chicago’s head coach, Ben Johnson, heap praise on his recent development through camp and preseason.
However, it is still uncertain whether Williams will take the field again before the regular season opener. The Bears’ preseason schedule culminates this Friday against the Kansas City Chiefs; Johnson has not confirmed if Williams will feature. They are set to kick start the regular season at home on September 8 against significant division rival, Minnesota Vikings.
