Williams' fully guaranteed four-year deal includes a $14.78 million signing bonus.

Williams, an edge rusher, was the No. 11 overall pick in this year’s draft. The 20-year-old registered 14 sacks over his three college football seasons at Georgia, where he won a national championship in 2022.

With a productive rookie minicamp and a four-year contract under his belt, Williams marches closer to solidifying himself as an elite run defender on the 49ers’ defensive line.
