What's next for Mykel Williams, 49ers

It is clear that Mykel Williams wants to show the best of his abilities so he can be a major contributor to the 49ers' defense.

The 49ers selected him with the 11th pick of the 2025 NFL Draft, following a memorable collegiate career with the Georgia Bulldogs. He won two national championships and landed on the All-SEC Second Team twice.

Throughout his entire career with the program, he collected 14.0 sacks, 67 tackles, four passes defended and three forced fumbles through 40 games. In his final campaign in 2024, he racked up five sacks, two forced fumbles and 15 solo tackles.

The 49ers will look forward to the growth Williams has while he adapts to the professional game. They will also seek for him to be an active contributor in the trenches with his ability to get stops, providing a significant improvement for San Francisco going into the 2025 season.
