Caleb Williams was front and center at another major event that had nothing to do with college football when he threw out the first pitch at Dodger Stadium before a game between the Dodgers and Angels. Such has been the offseason for Williams.

He served as the honorary starter for NASCAR’s Clash at the Coliseum in February. Williams walked in the Hugo Boss fashion show in March. In May, he threw out the first pitch in Washington D.C. before a game between the Nationals and Pirates. And just after that, he was in Europe to attend the Monaco Grand Prix.

These are the perks that come with being college football’s most outstanding and recognizable player. That comes from being the reigning Heisman Trophy winner and is a testament to the kind of platform upon which being a star USC quarterback can place you.

This won’t be the last time this season the Dodgers will celebrate Williams and the Trojans. They’ve added a Caleb Williams bobblehead to their giveaway schedule. The bobblehead will be given away before the August 10 game against the Colorado Rockies.

Williams Brings the Big Men Once Again

Williams once again made sure his offensive line received some attention and reward for their efforts and hard work.

Jonah Monheim, Gino Quinones, Jarrett Kingston, Justin Dedich, Emmanuel Pregnon and Michael Tarquin all joined Williams on the field. The six offensive linemen stood behind him as he threw the first pitch.

It was the same statement Williams made at the Heisman Trophy ceremony last December. Williams brought eight of his USC offensive line teammates along with him so they could celebrate the collective achievement of him being named a finalist and ultimately winning the award. Monheim, Quinones and Dedich were on that trip as well. Kingston, Pregnon and Tarquin are offseason transfer portal additions for the Trojans.
