Caleb Williams Invests in NWSL’s Boston Legacy FC

Caleb Williams, the Chicago Bears quarterback, is making a name for himself on and off the field. While he’s still building his football legacy in the Windy City, the young signal-caller is making headlines in Boston.

The National Women’s Soccer League’s newest expansion team, Boston Legacy FC, announced on Thursday morning that Williams has become a part of their growing group of investors. In 2026, the club will debut in the NWSL alongside Denver Summit FC.

The team will play its inaugural season at Gillette Stadium, home to the New England Patriots, before relocating to its permanent home at White Stadium in Boston. Through his investment firm 888 Midas, Williams expressed his enthusiasm for joining a movement that goes beyond sports.

“With 888 Midas, we are so excited to be part of the Boston Legacy Football Club,” Williams said in a club statement. “Women’s sports is a movement, and I admire and respect the work that the team and the NWSL continues to do to grow the sport and empower future generations of athletes. Boston Legacy Football Club is building something special, and we’re proud to be a part of what’s next.”

Professional athletes, particularly those from the NFL and NBA, are increasingly investing in women’s sports as interest and visibility reach unprecedented heights.

Williams is a member of a group of high-profile individuals supporting NWSL expansion clubs, which is accelerating the growth of infrastructure, fan engagement, and media presence.

Williams’s business ventures are expanding east, but he remains focused on Chicago, where he’s preparing for his second season as the Bears’ franchise quarterback. Due to his leadership and poise, the 23-year-old former Heisman Trophy winner has quickly become one of the most recognized young stars in the NFL.

Chicago is home to its own NWSL team, which is noteworthy. The Chicago Stars are set to relocate from SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois, to Martin Stadium in Evanston next season, marking another sign of women’s soccer’s continued growth and investment across the Midwest.

Williams’ participation in Boston Legacy FC is not just a financial move: it’s a declaration of belief in the future of women’s sports and a commitment to using his platform to support that evolution. Williams’s impact on the next generation of athletes and fans will be influenced by his investment in Boston, even as he continues to build his legacy in Chicago.
