Game day has always been Tramon Williams’ friend, the time when speculation stops and proof arrives.
The veteran cornerback took advantage of it early in his career, progressing from an undrafted free agent to a Pro Bowler with the Packers. He’s benefitting from it now, becoming a revelation at the second cornerback spot opposite Patrick Peterson since joining the starting lineup in Week 7.
Williams still has three games left to pile up production, which is why he wasn’t ready for conjecture to replace substance on Thursday in a post-practice interview. As a reporter explained where Williams checked in on the list of the NFL’s oldest cornerbacks – second behind Terence Newman – he knew where the conversation was going.
