Way-too-early Heisman contenders for the 2023 college football season

The 2022 Heisman Trophy ceremony has come and gone, and college football’s top honor went to a player who now will have a chance to become just the second player to win the award twice, joining Ohio State’s Archie Griffin (1974 and ’75).

USC’s Caleb Williams won the award but still has multiple seasons to play before taking his talents to the NFL. Stetson Bennett, C.J. Stroud and Max Duggan had great years and led their teams to the College Football Playoff, but Williams’ outstanding season couldn’t be topped in voters’ minds.

It’s never too early to look ahead at next year’s contenders, led by Williams. A look at the 2023 Heisman race:
