That $50 million is the maximum value with incentives. Of that sum, $37 million is guaranteed and $22 million comes as a signing bonus.
Last week the word was the two sides had made a big push to work something out and in the end they got it done before the draft, which means the 49ers don’t have a screaming need at left tackle they need to worry about.
Williams, 37, is a former first-round pick of Washington back in 2010. He played out the final year of his five-year, $66 million contract that included $43.25 million guaranteed and made a base salary of $12.5 million for the 2020 season.
The 49ers later traded for Williams and signed him to a new contract that runs through the 2026 season. Williams was set to earn a base salary of $20.05 million in 2024 when he agreed to a revised three-year, $82.66 million deal.
In 2025, Williams appeared in and started 17 games for the 49ers at left tackle. Pro Football Focus had him graded as the No. 3 tackle out of 84 qualifying players.
We’ll have more on Williams as the news becomes available.
