Jets Insider: Williams admits conditioning needs work

Most players hate running, but apparently not Leonard Williams, who wants to do even more of it after practice.

The sixth pick in this year’s draft said he thought he needed more conditioning after his NFL debut in the Jets’ victory over the Browns on Sunday.

“I mean, I don’t feel like I played to my best ability to be honest,” Williams said Monday. “I think part of it is just conditioning.”

“They had a few long drives, and I just noticed I was getting pretty tired on those drives,” he added.

Williams played at USC last year, where he was told specifically what to do to stay in shape.
