San Francisco has chosen not to exercise the option bonus for left tackle Trent Williams for 2026, raising his cap hit to $47 million. The 49ers are reportedly open to trading Williams, though discussions have stalled and a trade remains a possibility. With his contract voiding after 2026, any restructure would require his agreement, and he is set to earn $33 million in cash for 2026. As of now, there is skepticism about reaching a new deal before the upcoming draft.
