William Lee "Willie" McGinest, Jr, (born December 11, 1971 in Long Beach, California), is an American football free agent linebacker in the NFL.

The second of three children, McGinest attended Long Beach Polytechnic High School, where he garnered all-state honors in football and basketball.

Some of McGinest's classmates at Poly included rappers Snoop Dogg and Warren G., singer Nate Dogg, actress Cameron Diaz, and GC Pro's Paul Henry.
