Caleb Williams, Heisman winner, wants to live and work in Miami for Dolphins
MIAMI GARDENS — So Caleb Williams, a quarterback for USC who won the Heisman Trophy this year, wants to live and work in Miami.
Williams isn't even eligible for the next NFL Draft.
He likes aqua and orange. (Who doesn't?)
He likes Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle (Who doesn't?)
He likes the sunshine. Ditto. Ditto. Ditto.
Not Buffalo. Not Detroit. Not Cleveland.
We truly live and work in paradise.
Look, the Dolphins are committed to Tua Tagovailoa for 2023. They don't need to offer Tua a five-year extension now, but do need to make a decision soon on exercising Tua's fifth-year option.
But does star quarterback Lamar Jackson, like Williams, dream of joining Miami in 2024?
Perhaps Miami and Grier and Mike McDaniel will want to maintain some added flexibility.

If Tua were to be injured again and Miami were to collapse completely (my gosh we don't foresee or hope for that) well then we suppose they would be looking to draft a quarterback like Caleb in 2024.
But that's a worst-case scenario. They are hoping so badly that Tua is healthy and heroic in 2023.
Which NFL team does USC QB Caleb Williams want to play for?
That Caleb Williams, who has only two years of college football under his belt, has already decided (and declared to People magazine!) that he'd love to play for the Dolphins one day, tells us plenty though.
Like Tyreek Hill and well, also many chiropractors and teachers and sanitation workers, Caleb would love to live and work in Miami. Who doesn't!
This should be a great advantage for Grier to leverage in free agency.
No state sales tax! It's 85 degrees in February.
Look, Caleb Williams may be the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
It's cool that he thinks Miami coach Mike McDaniel is cool.
But the odds of him ending up in a Dolphins uniform are extremely long.
So while it's nice Caleb's thinking about South Florida now, we can assure you the Dolphins aren't spending much time thinking about him.
