Photo by Tim Nwachukwu/ It should be a fun one We’re here. It’s the game of the week. The San Francisco 49ers are as healthy as they can be heading into Philadelphia in December. The Eagles have been playing with fire for more than a month and are running into a team on a three-game winning streak. There are stars all over the field on both sides of the ball. Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey, Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, and Trent Williams all have arguments to be first or second team All-Pro players.

Eagles’ Jalen Carter completely unfazed by matchup with Trent Williams, 49ers offense line
If the San Francisco 49ers offense has one weakness, it’s their offensive line. “Weakness” doesn’t feel like the right word either, because their offensive line isn’t bad. However, outside of All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, the offensive line is not up to the level of the rest of their skill position players on offense. Philadelphia […] The post Eagles’ Jalen Carter completely unfazed by matchup with Trent Williams, 49ers offense line appeared first on ClutchPoints.

Golden Nuggets: Today, we are all Bills Mafia
Your daily San Francisco 49ers news for Sunday, November 26th, 2023 Jon Feliciano has Improved the 49ers Offensive Line “First, he filled in for injured left guard Aaron Banks, who had turf toe. Banks is the 49ers’ biggest, most powerful offensive lineman. He plays next to Trent Williams, and that’s the point of attack for the 49ers’ run game. Whenever they want to push back defensive linemen and create a new line of scrimmage downfield, they run to the left. So those offensive linemen must be strong. Feliciano was strong enough to fill in for Banks. The 49ers’...

Kyle Shanahan speaks about the 49ers being “pissed” out of the bye week
Photo by Don Juan Moore/ The Niners attitude made a difference. The 49ers got back on track in Jacksonville with a 34-3 blowout win over the Jaguars following their bye week.

49ers vs. Jaguars 1st quarter thread: The Chase Young debut
Sergio Estrada-USA TODAY Sports Young will start Trent Williams is playing, but we’ll see how effective the All-Pro is. Those who were at practice this past week believe that his ankle somewhat got worse after the bye week. But if you’ve ever suffered multiple ankle injuries, after a half dozen of them, you begin to not feel anything anymore. We’ll also get the Chase Young debut this afternoon. Expectations are high, despite some of the Commanders fans believing Young left a lot to be desired. But Young didn’t play with these players.

49ers inactives: Trent Williams and Deebo Samuel are ACTIVE for today’s game
Photo by Michael Zagaris/San Francisco 49ers/ Jon Feliciano will start for Aaron Banks at left guard We’re about an hour and a half away from kickoff between the San Francisco 49ers and the Jacksonville Jaguars. The big question heading into Sunday for the Niners was whether left tackle Trent Williams would suit up. Williams is active, which is a giant boost for a Niners offense that has struggled to run the ball in his absence. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel is also back, so the 49ers are healthy, all things considered. Here’s a look at today’s inactive list: QB...
