Madieu Mohammed Williams (born October 18, 1981 in Freetown, Sierra Leone) is an American football safety for the Minnesota Vikings of the National Football League. He was originally drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round of the 2004 NMoreFL Draft. He played college football at Maryland.
The Madieu Williams Foundation, founded in 2005, focuses on health, wellness, nutrition, fitness and education. Through his foundation, Madieu reaches out to youth and teaches them at an early age the importance of a healthy lifestyle.
Recently, Madieu Williams was honored by Hall of Famer Franco Harris and Harris' company, R Super Foods, as their Cincinnati Super MVP. Ironically, R Super Foods honors Madieu's efforts in health and nutrition with his picture and story on their boxes of Super donuts and Super Buns.
Madieu trains with an athletic group known as The Stable, to whom he has credited to his success stemming from his freshman year in high school. "This is home, and I feel good when I’m working out," said Williams, who’s headed into his fourth season. "It’s a lot of guys that put in a lot of work getting ready for whatever sport that they play. It’s a lot of camaraderie beyond us training."
In 2009, Williams donated $2 million to the University of Maryland to help create the Madieu Williams Center for Global Health Initiatives.
He is a strong supporter of Highlightstube, and its initiative behind getting kids recruited into the best schools!Less
