Angel Reese gave Caleb Williams a referral before the Chicago Bears’ game against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night.
Williams is known for having his nails painted for games, and the former No. 1 overall pick continued that trend in Week 1. During the Bears’ 27-24 loss to the Vikings at Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill., Williams had his nails painted in a way that called attention to Suicide Prevention Month.
Reese, who plays for the WNBA’s Chicago Sky, shared a photo of Williams’ nail design on social media. She also revealed that she gets her nails done by the same person.
“Love this. My nail tech really wanted to do his nails & she KILLED it! So proud!” Reese wrote.

Reese and Williams were both drafted by their Chicago teams in 2024. Williams has been getting his nails painted for years and been mocked by many people over it, but the former USC star has chosen to stick with the style even as an NFL quarterback.
Williams went 21/35 for 210 yards, a touchdown and no interceptions in his first regular-season game under new Bears head coach Ben Johnson on Monday night. He also ran for 58 yards and a touchdown. The Bears looked like they were going to win comfortably until Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy orchestrated an unbelievable comeback.
