Ram brand updates ‘The Calling’ campaign for football season featuring J.J. Watt.

Ram launched the latest evolution of the brand’s “The Calling” marketing campaign with a new video featuring football superstar J.J. Watt. The commercial, “Wiser,” centers on the new 2025 Ram 1500 Limited with the new High-Output 3.0L Hurricane engine and the brand’s sponsorship of the College Football Playoff. The marketing campaign, called “Wiser,” shines a spotlight on Watt’s post-football calling as founder of the JJ Watt Foundation, which raises funds for after-school athletic programs and organizations for 6th-8th grade students across the U.S.

“The Ram brand’s defining tenet is ‘built to serve,’ and our trucks help deliver on that promise every day,” said Raj Register, chief marketing officer, Stellantis North America. “J.J. is just one of our Ram owners who drives their truck to help build a better today and tomorrow, and we couldn’t be happier to work with J.J. and his foundation in our ‘Wiser’ campaign, to shine a spotlight on the incredible work that he is doing across an audience that continues to hold him as an example of excellence – both on and off the football field”.

“I’ve been extremely fortunate throughout my life to have so many great people help me along the way,” said Watt. “The whole goal of the JJ Watt Foundation is to try to provide some of that extra help to kids in underprivileged areas all over the country. I’m very grateful to the Ram brand for highlighting this work and helping us deliver on our mission.”
