It’s about a 15-hour drive from Bryant-Denny Stadium to MetLife Stadium. Joe Namath’s journey was a little longer … the trip to Queens adds over a half hour … but he’s glad to see Quinnen Williams is making the journey.
Speaking at Manhattan’s Gridiron Gala, an event hosted by the United Way, Namath lavished praises on the defensive lineman. Williams was chosen third overall by the New York Jets in last month’s NFL Draft.
“Quinnen is a fine man and he knows how to get out there and work,” Namath said, per Ethan Greenberg of NewYorkJets.
