The NFL is sending a marquee quarterback matchup to London this weekend.
Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears meet Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars in London in Week 6, the second of three London matchups this season. Of course, it isn't exactly as it seems.

The No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft, Williams seems to be putting things together. Flashing all of the traits and abilities that had him become a Windy City resident, the rookie passer has thrown up a pair of 300-plus-yard performances over his last three games.
Lawrence, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 draft, has navigated choppy early season waters thus far. He is, however, coming off his best performance in 2024, a 371-yard, two-touchdown game vs. the Colts that ended in a 37-34 victory to springboard the Jags to London.
What is the 'GSH' on the Bears jerseys?
