Is this expression correct? "You'll see how good I'm at playing football

The expression is correct, however "I am" is being emphasized so, in cases like this, we tend not to use a contraction (use "I am" instead of "I'm")

You'll see how good I am at playing football!

Sure. That will work. "Good" in this case is modifying (adding something to) "I am." So you could also say, "You'll see how well I play," in which you are now modifying your playing. If I were talking to friends or someone equal to me, I'd use the first sentence. But if, say, I were applying for a college and a scholarship, I would use the second sentence; it's more formal and in sticking with the formality of, say, getting into a college or something like that. Hope that helps.
