GREEN BAY – Packers Head Coach Matt LaFleur said running back Jamaal Williams is home and “doing well” after spending last night at a local hospital due to enduring a helmet-to-helmet hit in Thursday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.


Fellow running back Aaron Jones and position coach Ben Sirmans were among the several Packers teammates who visited Williams prior to the third-year running back being discharged Friday morning.


Even in a hospital bed, Williams was his typical funny self.


“He was Jamaal, himself, making jokes,” Jones said. “The nurse was like, ‘Let me listen to your stomach’ and he was like, ‘For what? So you can hear how empty it is?’ I was like, ‘Oh yeah, he’s perfectly fine. It’s Jamaal.’”


Williams was carried off on a stretcher after being injured on the Packers’ first offensive play following a helmet-the-helmet hit from Eagles defensive end Derek Barnett.
