SANTA CLARA — The 49ers selected Mykel Williams at No. 11 in the 2025 NFL Draft, a player they had been monitoring for over a year, praised for his resilience despite a high ankle sprain during the 2024 season. His dedication to practice and performance, along with his ability to dominate blockers and support teammates, impressed the 49ers’ scouting department, particularly during his appearances at training camp and games. With a productive history at Georgia and still being young, the 49ers believe Williams has the potential to make a significant impact on their team.
