Packers rookies Ryan Taylor, D.J. Williams form a tight bond

Posted Nov 2, 2011
If only D.J. Williams had seen Ryan Taylor in college. He would have had a field day.On those scorching summer days at North Carolina, Taylor's edgy attitude would cost him. "Multiple times," the tight end admits, he got into a scuffle at practice. A fight or something close to it. And each time, Taylor knew the punishment. Under former Tar Heels coach Butch Davis, any two players that got into a skirmish were forced to run one lap around the practice field. Holding hands. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)
