Former New Orleans Saints teammates Terron Armstead and Marcus Williams built a strong bond during their time together in the Big Easy, and that relationship remains as strong as ever.
Armstead was in attendance for the MW Athletics and GutCheck Combine, an event hosted through Williams’ youth training program, where he spent time supporting the next generation
of athletes while praising the work his former teammate has done in the community.
When asked about Williams and the event, the Saints Hall of Famer made it clear their connection goes well beyond football.
“That’s my little brother, literally, my little brother, love him to death. We’ve been locked in for many, many years. I’ve been to every camp. So all these kids that’s been here since they was five, six years old, and now they compete in high school. I got pictures with them as youngsters and now they, you know what I mean, growing up, so it’s been incredible to see the evolution of it. I love what he’s doing with the academy, the gym, I’m just, I’m proud of it,“ Armstead said.
His praise shines a light on Williams’ commitment to giving back. Through MW Athletics, the former Saints second-round pick has created opportunities for young athletes to develop both on and off the field, and Armstead has been there from the beginning, attending every camp and watching many of the participants grow up over the years.
For Saints fans, it’s another reminder that the bonds built in New Orleans continue long after players leave the organization, with two former teammates making an impact together in the community.
