Moreover, sports media personality, Skip Bayless even deemed Riley to be the Heisman maker after he guided Caleb Williams to be prize. Caleb won college football’s highest honor by beating Max Duggan, Stetson Bennett and CJ Stroud.
What next for Caleb Williams?
Just like Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray, Caleb Williams is surely going to be another Quarterback who will be chased by teams in order to lure him and build their team around him.
Caleb earned a majority of first-place votes in the balloting, which comprises 870 members of the media across the country as well as 57 former Heisman winners. This just justifies how emphatically, various people in and around the footballing world trust in his skillset and attacking prowess.
