On the record
Called Shots →Spotrac and Over The Cap still state Trent Williams' 2026 cap number more than $2,000,000 apart on September 15, 2026. The take is WRONG at $2,000,000 or below.
Spotrac's published San Francisco 49ers cap space and Over The Cap's are within $5,000,000 of each other on November 5, 2026, in either direction. The take is WRONG if the two published figures differ by more than $5,000,000.
Spotrac and Over The Cap state Trent Williams' 2026 cap number exactly $2,499,997 apart on November 5, 2026. The take is WRONG at any other difference, including a larger one.
Written about him
Nick Bosa and DeForest Buckner practiced together for the first time since 2020
Nick Bosa returned to practice as a limited participant Wednesday, his first work since a Sept. 24 calf strain, alongside DeForest Buckner. The 49ers opened practice windows for Demarcus Robinson and Nate Hobbs, Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, Mike Evans and Trent Williams did not practice, and Kyle Shanahan said Jauan Jennings did get on a FaceTime call before the Minnesota trade fell through.
Nick Bosa missed Thursday too, and Lynch put him in the Evans bucket
Nick Bosa did not practice Thursday, per the 49ers' official report, a day after Kyle Shanahan said he hoped Bosa would. Mike Evans missed a second day, listed with ribs and Achilles tendinitis. John Lynch told KNBR that Evans's status is 'still TBD' and that Bosa is 'in that same Mike Evans bucket,' with an answer from Shanahan due Friday. Mykel Williams returned as a limited participant and Trent Williams was full after Wednesday's rest day. Eight players missed both days.
Mike Evans practiced Friday, but he is a game-time decision against Denver
Mike Evans (ribs) was limited Friday after two days off and is questionable for Sunday against Denver; Kyle Shanahan called him a game-time decision. Dre Greenlaw, Keion White and Jaden Dugger are also questionable. Nick Bosa, James Thompson Jr. and Mykel Williams are out. Trent Williams and Romello Height carry no designation.
Brandin Cooks needed eight days on the 49ers' practice squad to reach the 53
The 49ers promoted receiver Brandin Cooks to the active roster on Thursday, signed receiver Malik Turner to the practice squad and released KhaDarel Hodge. Mike Evans (ribs) missed a second straight practice. Trent Williams returned, limited, from a neck stinger. Brock Purdy was named NFC Offensive Player of the Month.
Dante Pettis is back because the 49ers have three healthy receivers
Kyle Shanahan said before Wednesday's practice that eight players would not work: Mike Evans (ribs), KhaDarel Hodge (knee), Trent Williams (neck stinger), Dre Greenlaw (quad), Nick Bosa (calf), James Thompson Jr. (ankle), Keion White (hamstring) and Christian McCaffrey (rest). Mykel Williams, back from a torn ACL, and Romello Height, back from hand surgery, were limited. The club signed receiver Dante Pettis to its practice squad.
Week 3 takeaways: Arizona had the ball for 38 minutes and never led
San Francisco is 3-0 after a 36-30 win over Arizona. The 49ers led from the 8:26 mark of the first quarter to the end while running 50 offensive plays to Arizona's 81, and averaged 8.7 yards a play to Arizona's 4.5. Purdy was 15 of 27 for 297 yards, four touchdowns, no interception and no sack. Kittle caught both fourth-quarter touchdowns, the second two snaps after his own holding penalty wiped out a 45-yard Purdy touchdown run. Jordan Watkins caught two passes for 60 yards in his first game of the season. The defense was on the field for 87 snaps with nine linemen dressed. Evans (rib or oblique) and Trent Williams (stinger) left and did not return; Greenlaw left with a quad.
Bosa will miss Denver, and the 49ers signed Matt Judon to the practice squad
The 49ers signed four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher Matt Judon to their practice squad on Monday, filling it to 17. Kyle Shanahan said Nick Bosa and James Thompson Jr. will not play against Denver, Mike Evans's rib injury should not be long-term, and Trent Williams should be ready by Thursday. Romello Height is expected to practice this week and Mykel Williams's practice window opens.
The 49ers rested four veterans Wednesday, and three were full a day later
San Francisco filed its first official Week 2 injury report this week, and eleven 49ers were on it. Six did not practise Wednesday and four of those six were rest days: Nick Bosa, Dre Greenlaw, Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams. By Thursday, Greenlaw, McCaffrey and Williams were full participants and Bosa was limited. The two men who have not practised either day are Eddy Piñeiro, who is ill, and De'Zhaun Stribling, whose ankle needed surgery. Kaelon Black joined the report Thursday with a groin. Every man on Thursday's report played against the Rams in Melbourne.
My August Estimate Said $57 Million. Over The Cap Says $45,532,257.
Read in both books Thursday, September 10, 2026: San Francisco leads the NFL in cap space at $45,532,257 on Over The Cap and $50,209,913 on Spotrac. Over The Cap's charges rose $22,523,241 since August 27, against a modelled $9,842,532 to $10,825,332, so the August estimate missed by between $11,697,909 and $12,680,709. The practice squad landed inside the modelled range at $4,617,000 and dead money was light by $756,599. The miss is the reserve lists: injured reserve, reserve/PUP and one suspension carry $39,632,011, of which $3,419,563 reached the published number in August, and none of the three was an input to the estimate. The gap between the two books has collapsed from $11,991,268 to $4,677,656, and $6,302,000 of what is left is the two sites filing one player's absence under different headings at different prices. Trent Williams remains $2,499,997 apart, unchanged for thirty-three days, and that one contract is larger than the entire $2,059,992 active-roster difference. Of three calls resolving September 15, two are on track right and one is wrong by $322,344.
