US Edition49ers don’t rule out Trent Williams or any others ahead of Seattle showdown
Trent Williams is questionable due to a right hamstring injury sustained last week, impacting 49ers' playoff chances as no players are ruled out for the critical game.
- On Saturday, Jan. 3, 2026 at Levi's Stadium, the San Francisco 49ers listed left tackle Trent Williams questionable as they prepare for a high-stakes game against the Seattle Seahawks.
- Because Williams strained his right hamstring on the first offensive play against the Chicago Bears, he missed multiple practices and was absent on January 1, 2026.
- Coach Kyle Shanahan said Williams is a day-to-day call with a win potentially delivering a bye, while PFF grades him as an elite protector of Brock Purdy and Austen Pleasants would start if Williams is deactivated.
- On the final injury report, no player was ruled out while five 49ers were listed as questionable, and Christian McCaffrey, running back, and Kyle Juszczyk, fullback, are expected to play as a win could deliver a first-round bye in next week's wild-card round.
- Against a pressure-heavy Seattle defense, GM John Lynch warned the quick turnaround complicates decisions as Seattle ranks third in pressure rate at 40.1%, while hamstrings usually don't recover in six days.
