In this corner: Packers’ Tramon Williams turns to boxing

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — In this corner, cornerback Tramon Williams.

There are times when the Green Bay Packers veteran feels like he should be wearing a pair of boxing gloves instead of a helmet and shoulder pads.

Football has worked out just fine, though, for Williams. But as he has aged, Williams has carved out more time to get into the ring.

Boxing workouts are increasingly part of the 35-year-old Williams’ offseason routine, a regimen that he says helps him keep in shape and ready to go once training camp starts.

“I feel like I missed my calling, you know what I’m saying,” Williams said with a laugh.
