Caleb Williams was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft and is the starting quarterback for the Chicago Bears. He’s coming off a college career that included 10,082 passing yards, 120 total touchdowns and just 14 interceptions.

Williams is also fond of building with Lego bricks.

So much so that the Heisman Trophy he won during his sophomore season with the USC Trojans is slotted between two Lego sets.

Williams won the Heisman Trophy in 2022 after he threw for 4,075 passing yards, 37 touchdowns and ran for 372 yards and 10 scores. He became the Trojans’ eighth winner of the award.

Alongside the Heisman are Lego sets of the Marvel Avengers Tower and Disney Castle.

The Avengers tower includes 5,201 pieces and 31 minifigures and stands over 35.5 inches tall. It takes approximately 40 hours to build, according to IGN. The Disney Castle has 4,837 pieces with 8 minifigures that include Cinderella, Snow White, Prince Charming and Tiana.

Williams is no stranger to Lego. He often posts his sets on Instagram, including a snapshot in January of him building the Disney Castle.

He spoke about the process of building Lego sets while on The Pivot Podcast in April. He said the sets are “sick” and that building them is “a group project from everybody,” including his friends and girlfriend.

“You may be able to call it a Lego party,” Williams said jokingly. “We will literally sit down. … There’s separate books and it has steps and so everybody gets a book, a booklet. And everybody does those. When you finish the book, you add it on top of the other person’s [Legos].”

The sets seem to have a purpose for Williams outside of throwing parties to build them — they keep the quarterback’s Heisman Trophy company.
