Today I was able to speak with DeAngelo Williams on why he’s so active on Twitter and interacting with fans.

He responded, “It gives them the opportunity to learn me as a person and not as a football player.  They drive this game. The more they are involved in consuming what you got going on outside of football, the more they are to follow you while you are playing football.”

It’s refreshing to see guys that respect the fact that it all starts with the fans and their support.
