Trent Williams Expected to Play vs. Eagles, Still a Game-Time Decision

An insider report points to him suiting up, with final confirmation pending the 49ers' inactive list.

Overview

  • The All-Pro left tackle remains listed as questionable for the Wild Card in Philadelphia, with the go/no-go to be set by the pregame inactive list.
  • Williams told reporters he feels increasingly confident and intends to play through a hamstring strain suffered in Week 17.
  • FOX NFL's Jay Glazer reported Williams will play, a claim that spread on social media ahead of kickoff.
  • Williams practiced on a limited basis Thursday and Friday and acknowledged he is pushing the recovery timeline and might not finish the game.
  • San Francisco elevated WR Malik Turner as Ricky Pearsall trended toward sitting, and Austen Pleasants is the fallback at left tackle if needed.
