Video: Jets' Leonard Williams restrains someone in dispute at New York music festival

The Jets' defensive lineman prevented a possible fight from escalating at a New York City music festival.

New York Jets defensive lineman Leonard Williams and a man, believed to be inside linebacker Darron Lee, were involved in a scuffle at a New York City music festival on Saturday evening.

According to a Twitter user, one of the men, who appears to be Lee, was getting "aggressive" with a woman at the concert before Williams stepped in and pulled him away from any fight escalating.

Below is the Twitter thread by a witness:

Ok so, NFL player doing a good deed story. Feels like we only hear negative shit about sportsmen:

As I was leaving the festival tonight, I saw a man shouting at a woman, mid-argument. He then started to manhandle her and call her names.

Idk if they knew each other (doesn't really matter). The guy was pretty big (6'1, 90ksh kg) and it took 3/4 guys to get him to go away.

Shoutout to NYC people. There wasn't a shortage of people trying to help but the guy was big and aggressive. Anyway he went away...

Aggressive guy came back. Only this time he was confronted with the biggest person I've ever seen in my life - 6'5 and 300lbs (thanks Wiki)

Aggressive man was trying to get to the woman but the big dude was just in the way. So calm just like you're not getting through.

Then aggressive guy started squaring up and threatening the big guy. Trying to start a fight. Big guy again just blocked him.

Aggressive guy then tries to push big guy out the way. Bad move stepping to an NFL defensive end tbh.

Big guy literally picks up the aggressive guy and carries him 10ft backwards like he's a Costco shop. Just puts him down again.

Security then came and sorted everything. But so impressed at how the guy came to help the woman and dealt with it all so calmly.
