Leonard Williams on Seahawks’ “Dark Side” defense, Super Bowl win & Sam Darnold | Richard Sherman

Leonard Williams joins Richard Sherman to chat about the Seattle Seahawks’ journey to winning the Super Bowl over the New England Patriots, what it finally meant after all the struggles, and how Seattle’s defense came to be known as The Dark Side. He talks about playing with Sam Darnold back in their New York Jets days and seeing him regain his confidence, as he did at USC. Leonard also shares how Mike Macdonald earned his teammates’ trust, why the best defenses start in the trenches, and a game-time move that led to a big playoff sack against the San Francisco 49ers. Plus, Leonard opens up about how Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, fishing, plants, and family help him chill out and reset after a tough NFL season.
