Mykel Williams is officially a San Francisco 49er after signing his rookie contract with the team. The 49ers didn’t release terms of the deal, but ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported it is a four-year contract worth $25 million, fully guaranteed. NBC Sports reported he received a signing bonus of $14.78 million. Williams participated in the 49ers’ rookie camp last weekend along with fellow draftees, getting his first chance to work with the team’s coaches. San Francisco drafted Williams 11th overall out of Georgia, where he starred for the Bulldogs over three seasons, won the College Football Playoff national title in January 2023 and was a two-time second-team All-SEC player. In 2024, he racked up 21 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, 5 sacks, two forced fumbles and one pass defensed over 12 games. The 20-year-old edge rusher who grew up in Columbus, Georgia, had 14 sacks over his three seasons in college. He fills a spot opposite Nick Bosa on the 49ers’ defensive line, which has been a revolving door in recent years. Leonard Floyd started at defensive end last year after signing as a free agent, but was released this offseason. The line also lost Javon Hargrave and Maliek Collins on the inside, but added Alfred Collins and C.J. West in the draft along with Williams.
