Leonard Williams walked in with, and was holding, the evidence of how the Seahawks and Seattle have transformed his life.
Williams grew up in Dayton Beach, Florida, "grew up, you know, homeless, at times. I grew up living in, in and out of hotels, motels — and, you know, kind of an unstable lifestyle as a young kid," the 32-year-old Pro Bowl defensive lineman said last year.
Williams had just signed his three-year, $90 million extension with $56 million guaranteed to him Thursday. It keeps him under contract with the defending Super Bowl champions through 2029.
He was walking the team's indoor practice field into a press conference Thursday. His wife Hailey, whom he married last year before he second full season with the Seahawks, walked with him. She pushed a stroller. He held their five-month-old son, Zion.
They were a short drive from the home they own in the hills above Seahawks headquarters, in Seattle's eastern suburbs.
