49ers' Trent Williams Officially Ruled Out for Remainder of 2024 Season

Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the All-Pro left tackle will not return due to injuries as the team faces a disappointing end to their season.

  • Trent Williams, an 11-time Pro Bowler, has been sidelined since suffering an ankle and heel injury in November and will miss the final two games of the season.
  • Williams has also been dealing with personal tragedy following the loss of his stillborn son, Trenton O’Brien Williams Jr., in late November.
  • The 49ers have struggled in Williams' absence, going 1-4 without him and being eliminated from playoff contention after a 6-9 season.
  • Backup left tackle Jaylon Moore, who had performed well in Williams' place, is also out for the season with a quad injury, leaving the team thin on the offensive line.
  • San Francisco is exploring options to fill the left tackle position, including untested players like Austen Pleasants or potential free-agent signings.
