GREEN BAY — Tramon Williams did indeed consult with other doctors about his knee injury, but the Green Bay Packers cornerback still isn't concerned about it.

Williams said the injury has been diagnosed as a "bone bruise," and that scans have shown no damage beyond that.

"It wasn't a tear at all, so that's definitely a good sign," Williams said after watching Saturday night's Family Night Scrimmage. "I'm not concerned much at all. Obviously at this point, I'm just sitting and resting it. According to the doctors, it's not serious. That's about all we can do at this point.

"It's just one of those things that needs rest. You can never put a timetable on injuries. You don't want to come back too fast and have a setback. You'd rather wait around until you know you can go full speed."

Williams was injured in the team's first practice in pads on July 31. He was in coverage and dove for a ball and landed on his knee, banging it on the grass. He continued to practice, however, until dropping out several periods later.

"It happened early in practice, one of the first periods. I kind of fell on it," Williams explained. "I went in for the ball and kind of rolled over on the ground, landed on my knee in kind of an awkward way. I got right up from it and ran off the field, but in the process, I knew that I felt a little something in there. I just got it checked out and we shut it down."

In concert with team physician Dr. Pat McKenzie, Williams had a few other doctors look at the test results and MRI scan of his knee.

"The same scans, a couple different doctors in the process of me resting and recovering and rehabbing," Williams said. "We just wanted to put a couple different eyes on things. That's all it is."

The 30-year-old Williams felt good enough to jog onto the field with the rest of his cornerback mates during pre-scrimmage introductions and did not sound like he was worried about when he'll return.

"I thought it was smart to go in and get it checked out. Obviously I did the right thing," Williams said. "The last thing you want to do is make a knee injury worse."

Packers cornerback Tramon Williams injured his shoulder in 2011 and played through the pain, something that may have contributed to it being an issue for him throughout all of last season as well.

That experience has had an impact on the way Williams is handling a bone bruise in his knee that he picked up early in training camp this year. Williams sat out Saturday night’s scrimmage at Lambeau Field even though tests have turned up nothing to create a high level of concern and said that he’ll continue to stay on the sideline until he’s confident that everything has healed.

“It wasn’t a tear at all, so that’s definitely a good sign,” Williams said, via ESPNWisconsin.com. “I’m not concerned much at all. Obviously at this point, I’m just sitting and resting it. According to the doctors, it’s not serious. That’s about all we can do at this point. It’s just one of those things that needs rest. You can never put a timetable on injuries. You don’t want to come back too fast and have a setback. You’d rather wait around until you know you can go full speed.”
