Lil Wayne walks back a recent diss he made towards Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams after a playoff loss by the Green Bay Packers.
On Jan. 10, following Chicago’s 31–27 win over Green Bay in the NFL Wild Card round, the “Loliipop” hitmaker posted a heated reaction as a lifelong Packers fan. The rapper vented his frustration in raw terms, firing off a tweet that mocked Williams after the loss and reflected how stunned he felt watching Green Bay get bounced from the postseason.
The tweet spread quickly and drew criticism, with many fans calling out the language and tone. What started as fan rage crossed into uncomfortable territory, shifting attention away from the game and toward Wayne’s wording instead.
Four days later, Wayne returned to X with a follow-up that read like both an apology and a reset. “Ay Caleb don’t mind me bruh I’m just a cheesehead 4life,” Wayne wrote, making it clear his emotions were rooted in fandom. By leaning into the “cheesehead” label, Wayne framed the original post as frustration from a Packers loyalist, not a personal attack.

He then flipped the narrative to give Williams his respect. “U just a killa & ya kilt us bad each time,” Wayne wrote, acknowledging how effectively the Bears quarterback has played against Green Bay. Wayne followed that with praise, adding, “4 dat u get da praise gesture from me! 🙌🏾”
Wayne went further, saying it would be “impossible” to make his earlier statement without “acknowledging & admiring yo game king.” The message marked a clear shift from venting to admiration, reframing the moment around competition and performance.
The line “U a beast but ya still a bear” summed up the balance. Wayne credited Williams as elite while staying loyal to Green Bay, punctuating the post with a cheese emoji to underline where his allegiance still lies.
Caleb Williams responded calmly, closing the exchange without escalating. “Weez it’s all love,” he wrote, using Wayne’s nickname. He added, “#BearDown Tho,” keeping the rivalry intact while accepting the respect.
The back-and-forth showed how fast sports trash talk can spiral, especially when celebrities weigh in publicly. It also showed how accountability plays out online. Wayne didn’t erase the moment. He owned it, explained it, and redirected the energy back to football, rivalry, and earned respect.
