Williams came in to Green Bay on a private jet this morning and is expected to sign if everything goes right. He will add depth and experience to the secondary and could return punts if needed. https://t.co/FxkisJ9g6A

The Green Bay Packers are bringing back a beloved player to make sure their roster is ready to win an NFC title and get back to the Super Bowl.
According to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, veteran cornerback Tramon Williams flew to Green Bay on Wednesday and is expected to sign with the Packers after being cut by the Baltimore Ravens on Monday.
On the league’s daily transaction wire, the Packers listed Williams as an official free-agent visit.
Williams, who turns 38 in March, played both the 2018 and 2019 seasons in Green Bay but wasn’t re-signed in 2020. He eventually signed in Baltimore in November and played six games with the Ravens, including last week’s playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills.
Williams was the Packers’ primary cornerback in the slot last season. He could provide valuable depth at all cornerback positions and potentially give the Packers another option returning punts in a pinch.
Williams won a Super Bowl as a member of the Packers in 2010. He has played 15 playoff games with the franchise.
This would be the second time the Packers brought back a player after a playoff loss. Offensive tackle Jared Veldheer was signed off of the Indianapolis Colts practice squad earlier this month.
