DeSean Jackson Has Message For 49ers Fans About Trent Williams After announcing departure…..

It has been slow going for the San Francisco 49ers as far as any progress on the contract disputes of wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and left tackle Trent Williams.

 

While Aiyuk has been demanding a lucrative contract extension, Williams, who has three years left on his current deal, wants his contract to be restructured, presumably so that he will receive some guaranteed money.

On Fox Sports 1’s “Speak,” DeSean Jackson said he just talked to Williams, and that Williams is working out and “will be there” once the real games begin next month.

Williams, who is widely considered the NFL’s best left tackle and one of the best overall players in football, has been holding out of training camp as a result of his contract situation.

 

He is the cornerstone of a 49ers offensive line that is lacking elsewhere, and he has made the Pro Bowl in each of his last 11 seasons (he missed all of 2019 due to surgery) and has been named to the All-Pro First Team in each of the last three years.

It is thought that San Francisco will not address Williams’ contract until it resolves the Aiyuk situation by either trading Aiyuk or coming to an agreement with the wideout on an extension.

 

It at least somewhat makes sense, as the team would know at that point what its financials will look like.

 

But if both situations work out in the 49ers’ favor, they should be the favorites to win the NFC again, if not win their sixth Super Bowl championship.
