Green Bay Packers right guard William "Billy" Turner's perspective on life was bleak and negative after he was cut by the Dolphins in October 2016. But more than three years later, Turner's outlook has changed, and the 6-foot-5, 310-pound guard's conscious mission to spread positive energy has become a driving force behind the Packers' success this season.(AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File)
