USC quarterback Caleb Williams wins 2022 Heisman Trophy in first year with Trojans

The 2022 Heisman Trophy is won by USC Quarterback Caleb Williams. The award was announced on Saturday night. This individual honor is college football's most cherished award. And Caleb went and bagged it in his first year with the Trojans.

The other top three nominees for the award were TCU's Max Duggan, Georgia's Stetson Bennett, and Ohio State's C.J. Stroud. This was the first all-quarterback team to be nominated for the award since 2018.

Williams stood first with 2031 points, Duggan second with 1420 points, Stroud third with 593 points, and Bennett fourth with 349 points.


In the last 13 years, this is the 11th time that a quarter has won the trophy.

The acceptance ceremony took place in New York City. Williams expressed his honor to be a part of that fraternity, and he will cherish that for his entire life. He acknowledges that his success was not an individual effort, but his team played a vital role in the journey.



Williams got a hamstring injury last week during his game. But despite the injury, he played quite well. This shows his determination to win and dedication to his team. As he is injured, there is a chance that he might not play in the coming game on January 2.

Williams will not be eligible until 2024 to apply for special draft eligibility. But he will enter next season and help the Trojans build a bashing campaign for the coming year.

There are great expectations from Williams for the coming games, and he says he is prepared. He said that he had worked very hard to come here and he would continue to do so.
