Sherman Williams (born August 13, 1973 in Mobile, Alabama) is a former professional American football running back in the NFL for five seasons for the Dallas Cowboys. Williams played college football for the University of Alabama.

He has spent his time since 2000 in the prison about 45 miles west of Memphis, Tenn. That's where he'll probably reside at least till 2013 for his conviction on three counts of conspiracy to distribute marijuana and a separate plea for passing counterfeit currency. [1]

But Williams believes performing under the spotlight, in stadiums packed with fans, toughened him for prison life. When asked about it, he said "You know, I would think that things that would kill the average man wouldn't even make me flinch." [2]
