The reigning Heisman Trophy winner is back in college football for the 2023 season, giving us all a star to watch as he continues to develop into a potential top-level NFL Draft pick. And Caleb Williams already has some favorite NFL landing spots.

In an interview with People magazine, the Heisman Trophy winner revealed his preferred landing spot would be with the Miami Dolphins.

“I like to be around younger coaches,” Williams told People. “I’d probably go to the Dolphins. I also would be able to play with Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Mike Gesicki. The defense isn’t bad. That’s probably my number one spot.”

On top of that the USC star also like Miami’s colors, he said.

But high-level draft prospects like Williams don’t get to choose their landing spots. So are there any other favorite NFL landing spots for the USC superstar?

He included the San Francisco 49ers, the Las Vegas Raiders and the Atlanta Falcons among the organizations he’d love to suit up for. But there’s still a long way to go until the 2023 NFL Draft.

And a lot of football to be played.

Can Caleb Williams defend his Heisman Trophy?

While it’s not unheard of for Heisman Trophy winners to be back in school, it’s not always the case.

A huge spotlight will be on Williams this fall, though it’s one he certainly earned after throwing for 4,537 yards and 42 touchdowns, while also rushing for 382 yards and another 10 scores.

But there’s reason to believe Williams could make a real run at it.

For one, it’ll be his third year in the system with coach Lincoln Riley, and the dynamic duo only seem to get better with time.

In any case, the NFL will certainly be waiting whenever Williams finishes up his stint in college. He’ll undoubtedly be one of the most decorated draft prospects out there whenever he does make the leap to the next level.
