How 49ers' Trent Williams forfeited millions in fines and cashed in big time
Briefly

The stare-down and holdout is over. Trent Williams and the San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a restructured three-year contract that has vaulted the star left tackle back up the positional pay ranking and guaranteed him $48 million at signing.
Though most of that room will roll forward into the 2025 league year, it might also come in handy this season if the 49ers choose to absorb a larger contract as part of an in-season trade.
Williams' deal is worth up to $82.7 million over three seasons, according to his agency, Elite Loyalty Sports. It replaces the final three years of the six-year contract Williams signed with the 49ers in 2021.
The new pact averages out to $27.6 million per year, which brings Williams back in line with the NFL's highest-paid tackles.
