San Francisco — All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, widely regarded as one of the NFL’s most dominant linemen, faced rare turbulence this week at 49ers training camp — courtesy of Nick Bosa and rookie Mykel Williams.
Back-to-back padded practices saw Williams tested like never before, prompting one insider to describe it as “the most human Trent has looked in a Niners uniform.” Bosa beat him clean on a speed rush, while Mykel delivered a bull rush so explosive it had the sideline buzzing.
Still, Williams embraced the heat of competition.

Despite allowing just one sack in three seasons, Williams isn’t showing signs of decline — rather, he’s standing firm against what could be the best defensive line in football.
This training camp battle isn’t about weakness. It’s about greatness colliding in the trenches — and Williams is still swinging with the best of them.
