Caleb Williams Avatar for Hall of GOATS Video Game Available Now
It’s Caleb Williams’ world right now. But as of 10 am, you can get in on some of the action. The USC quarterback, Heisman Trophy winner and All-American is also serving as one of the faces for an upcoming arcade-style video game from Hall of GOATS, created by former Trojans Matt Leinart and Greig Carlson. Williams’ likeness is now available to purchase for $30 and use in the game. But this avatar drop will only be available through Jan. 2. A portion of the proceeds earned from today’s drop will go to the Caleb Cares Foundation.
The video game is set for an early 2024 release and will allow users to purchase digital avatars of current and former college football stars, with NIL earnings going back to the athletes. So far, the list of players who have signed on includes, Braelon Allen, Deuce Vaughn, LenDale White, Vince Young, Xavier Worthy and Zach Evans.
Williams is part of the video game’s leadership team and the first to be featured in a prominent avatar drop. The hope is that by the time the game is launched, around 200 athletes will be represented on the platform.
Using Williams in the game won’t be the only perk of purchasing the avatars when they drop. Owners of the game’s digital avatars will also have access to Q&A sessions with the players, exclusive merchandise drops, memorabilia and autographs, IRL experiences, in-game perks and boosts and a chance to win tickets to the 2023 National Championship Game.

Williams and his Soaring NIL Valuation
Williams’ Heisman Trophy win on Saturday night helped boost his On3 NIL Valuation up to $3.2 million. That’s a $651,000 jump in the last week. He’s now No. 2 in the college football NIL rankings. And he’s closing the gap considerably on Alabama quarterback Bryce Young for the No. 1 spot.
Both Young and Williams recently announced major NIL deals with Celsius Fitness Drinks.
The Heisman Trophy win brings plenty of other perks. With it, Williams is likely to appear in Dr. Pepper’s Fansville commecials as well as Nissan’s Heisman House ads. Young was featured in both throughout this season. Because of that and his other partnerships, Williams’ NIL Valuation is set to soar.
