FFLiveWire Exclusive Interview with Jack Williams

Kent State cornerback Jack Williams took the time to answer some questions with FFLiveWire's Luke Nicholson about his collegiate career, making plays on the field, and what makes him one of the elite cornerbacks in the 2008 NFL Draft.

 

 

Luke Nicholson: What is your greatest football moment to date?


Jack Williams: A 99 yard interception return for a TD in my first college game at Iowa.


Luke Nicholson: During your career at Kent State, what did your typical day during football season consist of?


Jack Williams: Wake up go watch film, then go to class, watch film, then go to practice. After practice go to the recreation center and sit in the hot tub


Luke Nicholson: What sports did you participate in during high school and how have they helped you to become a better player on the football field?


Jack Williams: I played football, track, wrestling, and baseball. Baseball helped me with my ball skills as far as judging the ball in the air and wrestling just made me tougher and put me in better shape.


Luke Nicholson: Are scouts planning to work you out at free safety, as well as cornerback? How do you feel about the possibility of a position change?


Jack Williams: I don’t know if the scouts plan on working me out at FS but I would change positions in a heart beat if that’s what I had to do to make a club and be successful in the NFL.



Luke Nicholson: Who is the best player you have faced during your career?


Jack Williams: Greg Jennings who now plays for the Green Bay Packers.


Luke Nicholson: If you could have any super power, what would you choose? Why?


Jack Williams: Ability to disappear and be in two different places with the snap of a finger, so I could get home faster if I needed to be or wanted to visit.


Luke Nicholson: What one thing do you have to work on the most to excel at the NFL level?


Jack Williams: Making plays. Coaches want to play people who make plays in practice and in the game.


Luke Nicholson: What current NFL player does your game most resemble?


Jack Williams: I can’t say just one. I try to take a little bit of skills from all of them and implement it into my game.


Luke Nicholson: If someone decided to make a movie about your life, what actor would play you and what would the movie be titled?


Jack Williams: Chris Brown and the movie would be called You Don’t Know Jack.



Luke Nicholson: What are you doing to prepare for the NFL Combine?


Jack Williams: Training hard 6 days a week 2 times a day.


Luke Nicholson: Which teams have expressed interest in you at this point?


Jack Williams: Not really sure. But I hope all of them.


Luke Nicholson: Is there a specific team you hope to play for?


Jack Williams: I would be blessed and honored to play for any team that believes in me enough to draft me.


Luke Nicholson: Are you a cat or a dog? Why?


Jack Williams: A dog. Dogs are loyal, responsible, fast and protective.



Luke Nicholson: Outside of football, what are some of your hobbies?


Jack Williams: I like to draw, play video games, cook and watch TV.


Luke Nicholson: Why should a NFL team select you over other cornerbacks in this draft?


Jack Williams: I have what the other corners don’t. I have triple threat. I’m a cover corner, tackle/hard hitting corner, as well as a kick returner and I have special teams ability.


Luke Nicholson: What are your plans for your career after football?


Jack Williams: Right now I’m just focusing on my football career. Sorry.


Luke Nicholson: What is something unique about you that most people don’t know?


Jack Williams: I have a twin brother named John.


Luke Nicholson: If you could intercept any NFL quarterback, who would you choose? Why?


Jack Williams: Brett Favre because he is a living legend and future hall of famer.



Luke Nicholson: Finish the following sentence: Jack Williams is faster than…


Jack Williams: a speeding bullet.


Luke Nicholson: Thank you for your time, Jack. The staff at FFLiveWire wishes you the best of luck in all of your NFL endeavors.
