PLAYER NEWS
Williams has been diagnosed with a bruised shoulder after leaving Thursday night's game against the New Orleans Saints. Packers coach Mike McCarthy says no timeline has been established for Williams' return. He said the outlook is "positive" and the injury didn't seem severe.|||||||
Williams appeared to hurt his right shoulder in a collision with Packers safety Nick Collins. Collins bruised his wrist during the game, but McCarthy said he didn't expect Collins to miss any time in practice next week.
Williams has been added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster after the Philadelphia Eagles' Asante Samuel was unable to play because of an injury.|||||||
Williams had a breakout season, starting all 16 games and leading the team with a career-high six interceptions and a career-best 23 passes defensed. Williams is the sixth Green Bay player to be named to the team, joining tackle Chad Clifton, safety Nick Collins, wide receiver Greg Jennings, linebacker Clay Matthews and cornerback Charles Woodson.
The Green Bay Packers have agreed to a contract extension with cornerback Tramon Williams. Agent Rodney Williams confirms the deal, saying his client is happy to be staying in Green Bay.|||||||
Williams, a fourth-year player out of Louisiana Tech, was regarded as a reliable No. 3 cornerback before veteran Al Harris sustained a season-ending knee injury late last season. Williams became a full-time starter, and coaches say his coverage skills have come to rival those of fellow Packers cornerback Charles Woodson.
Williams is ready to take over for Al Harris, although the Green Bay Packers' second-year cornerback might not have to fill in for Harris for the rest of the season after all.|||||||
With Harris having suffered an injured spleen during last Sunday night's loss to Dallas _ an injury that will keep him out of Sunday's game at Tampa Bay but not necessarily for the rest of the season _ it's Williams who'll move into the starting lineup opposite the Packers' other veteran corner, Charles Woodson.
