U.S. international Tyler Adams visited the Chicago Bears training facility during a break in his preseason preparations with AFC Bournemouth. Adams, who has been in the United States with the Cherries, exchanged jerseys with Williams. The midfielder presented the quarterback with a signed Bournemouth kit while receiving a Bears kit in return. Their interaction highlights the shared experiences of young American athletes thrust into leadership positions, with 25-year-old Adams already captaining his national team while 22-year-old Williams enters the NFL carrying immense expectations as the first overall pick.
