Profile

AveryWilliamson

Linebacker #54 Tennessee Titans

I was born in Cleveland, Ohio but raised in the backwoods of West Tennessee. I grew up working with my father on our cattle farm, which taught me many things that I carry with me to this day. There was always something to do around the house that I didn’t enjoy doing, but I would never refuse to finish the task. There were many times I hated being in the heat or shivering in the freezing cold, but it made me tougher mentally. Football related to my everyday life in a sense that I couldn’t give up on my dreams no matter how hard it got.

When you think about the life you’ve lived so far, what way would you describe it? The one word that will describe me the best is determination. Most people know me from what they see on the tv screen, or from the blog sites online, but not many know the real person behind the helmet. Here’s a look into the life of Avery Williamson.

Something people may not know about me...

Passion

I love being around live stock as crazy as it sounds and I plan on having a huge ranch one day after I finish playing.

Fear

Something I am terrified of are spiders. No matter the size of the spider, they all freak me out.

Motivation

My dad never forced me to do anything in sports. He didn't care about the sports more so my education. I was always self motivated.

Hobby

My go to for relaxation and entertainment is fishing. I love fishing and do it as often as I can.
