Giants’ Darius Slayton praises Malik Willis’ selflessness

The New York Giants may or may not be in the market for a quarterback this spring but either way, they could always use another humanitarian.

Enter Liberty quarterback Malik Willis, who just happens to be both.

On Thursday at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, when he didn’t realize any cameras were on him, Willis took a moment to help someone in need. The video, understandably and deservedly, went viral.

Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton was quick to praise Willis for his humility.

Willis is a double threat that is intriguing just about every NFL team. That intrigue intensified with Willis’ solid performance at the NFL Combine on Thursday night.

From NFL.com:

Willis consistently made things look easy on Thursday night, showing excellent arc on his deep throws. While he did overthrow a couple of shorter targets, his slants got into the receiver’s hands in a hurry. The moment wasn’t too big for him, and he was encouraging his fellow combine participants during their reps. He chose not to run a 40-yard dash in Indianapolis, but he already has plenty of tape that displays what he can do with the ball in his hands.

And now there’s more tape. This of Willis off the field. He is a first round round talent now.
