Inside Giants' plan to get most out of ex-Jet Leonard Williams

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It won't take long for Leonard Williams to get an opportunity to show the New York Jets they made a mistake by trading him to the crosstown rival New York Giants.

The former No. 6 overall pick for the Jets admits there is a "little extra juice" for the game against his former team Sunday (1 p.m. ET, Fox). Giants vs. Jets means something, especially with both teams so desperate for a victory.

Williams not only gets to play against his former team, but will do so in a prominent role that has Giants defensive coordinator James Bettcher staying up at night dreaming of ways to maximize his newest lineman's potential.
