A lot of players in the National Football League have interests outside of the sport.
Some players like to play golf or help out in the community.
In rookie quarterback Caleb Williams’ case, he is reportedly launching his own investment firm.
888 Midas, Williams’ firm, will be looking to invest in private equity, venture capital, and real estate deals, according to Bloomberg.

This is not the first time that a player has had an idea to start their own business or put a major investment into something other than football.
Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is a minority owner of the Milwaukee Bucks and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is a minority owner of the Kansas City Royals.
This is a brilliant idea given that players can only play in the NFL for so long before they decide to hang up their cleats for good.
Williams is getting off to a quick start away from the football field by starting his own firm.
So, when he is done playing the game, he could have a career waiting for him.
The Chicago Bears drafted Williams with the No. 1 overall draft pick in April’s NFL Draft.
The former Heisman winner has a really powerful image, and one that has the chance to inspire future generations.
If he has the career that plenty of fans think that he will have in the Windy City, that image, along with his firm, could take off even more.
