It looks like Green Bay Packers’ cornerback Tramon Williams did sign his restricted free agent tender before the team-imposed June 15 deadline. That fact was confirmed today by the league.

The Green Bay Packers plan to reduce the tenders to their three remaining unsigned restricted free agents tomorrow if those players don’t sign before the 12 a.m. ET deadline.

As expected, the Green Bay Packers three remaining unsigned restricted free agents didn’t show for the start of organized team activities, Tuesday.

The Rest of the Green Bay Packers News
Jan 23rd
No, I’m not going to start doing a Green Bay Packers-related link dump every day, or even every week. I get much more satisfaction from writing stuff and then letting you guys shit all over it.

Driver Pissed. Kampman Silent. Tramon Rich. Harrell Healthy?
May 29th
Gettin’ paid, bitch! All of this came out on the first day of the Green Bay Packers’ OTAs, which, for the uninitiated stands for organized team activities.

The Packers Cornerback Battle
May 27th
While the Green Bay Packers certainly have some positions up for grabs this offseason – the entire offensive line, two defensive line spots, two outside linebacker spots, and fullback are in play, as well as who starts at safety alongside Nick Collins – there is one position that is more intriguing to me than any [...]
