San Francisco 49ers released their injury report recently, and it showers some good news to the Niner fans. The veteran left tackle Trent Williams who, though listed as questionable, is expected to play against the Chicago Bears today according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Williams has not played for the Niners after suffering an unfortunate knee injury during the Week 5 loss against the Cardinals. His return will most certainly give the Niners’ offense the necessary boost to overcome their four-game losing streak.

And with Jimmy G leading the Niners’ offense will be well backed with Trey Lance up on the sidelines. The Shanahan side needs to register a win as their 2-4 run so far this season is not at all respected enough to make them a playoff contender.
