GREEN BAY — Training camp is officially underway, and the Green Bay Packers’ confidence in nickel cornerback Chandon Sullivan is so unwavering that they’ve given no indication that they’ve even considered bringing back veteran Tramon Williams for another year.
There’s an old adage in the NFL that it’s better to get rid of a veteran player a year too early than a year too late, and while the 37-year-old Williams has expressed his desire to return for a 14th NFL season — and 11th in Green Bay — general manager Brian Gutekunst doesn’t seem inclined to call the guy who helped the 2010 team to the Super Bowl XLV title nearly a decade ago but also helped the 2019 team to an NFC Championship Game berth just eight months ago with his steady play in the slot.
