When Matt LaFleur said it was all-hands-on-deck, he wasn't kidding. 

Here’s an interesting one: veteran CB Tramon Williams is visiting the Packers, the team he’s previously spent over a decade with. He’d add some depth and insurance to the secondary if signed. — Field Yates (@FieldYates) January 20, 2021 

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 
— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) January 20, 2021 

Williams was most recently with the Baltimore Ravens and actually played in their playoff loss to the Bills this past weekend. He was released by Baltimore on Monday. 

Let's go.

Good move. Gute has been pulling out all the stops trying to improve the whole 53 roster. Right now Josh Jackson and Kadar Hollman are the 4-5 CBs. Jackson is rarely activated. Hollman is STs. Williams can strengthen both ST and CB depth.

They designated for return from injured reserve inside linebacker James Burgess, cornerback Kabion Ento and cornerback Parry Nickerson. All three become eligible to practice right away and can be activated to the 53-man roster any time between now and the Super Bowl.

Burgess was a regular on special teams and could get a call up this week if the coaches think he is physically ready.

I don't think this is going to help at all, unless he is going to coach on the sideline.

Also, possible be there to sucure punts... our returners have been questionable at times with just weather to catch it or not.

I like Tramon. I also like Desmond Howard, but I wouldn't put him back there for punts, lol. Clearly Tramon is much younger of the two. Tavon was brought here for a niche role in offense and to return. It just doesn't make sense how excited I've seen fans get over this. I don't think he'd see the field for more than half dozen plays.

After looking at his stats, for the most part Tramon hasn't been a very good returner. First, the only season he had more than a handful punt returns was all the way back in 2010 (41). The only other time he had double digit returns was 2009 and 2018 with 13. His return average is 9.0 but that is from his returns in 2007 and 2009. He hasn't had a kickoff return since 2009 when he returned 2 kicks for a 13 yard avg.

Yeah, honestly if the Packers have a lead late in the game that they need to hold onto and are returning a punt, I would march Tramon out there and tell him to fair catch the thing and count on him not to muff it.

As mentioned, he should be good CB/S depth as well, and won't need much (if any) time to get up to speed in Pettine's defense.
