Williams\u2019 absence marks the fourth consecutive game he will miss due to an ankle injury.<\/p>\n<p>The All-Pro left tackle has been instrumental to the team\u2019s success. Since 2021, the 49ers have been 20 games over .500 with Williams in the lineup but just 4-6 without him. His replacement, Jaylon Moore, will face his toughest test yet against the Rams&#8217; formidable pass rush, led by Jared Verse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c49ers ruled out LT Trent Williams (ankle) and S Malik Mustapha (chest, shoulder) for Thursday night\u2019s game vs. the Rams. DE Nick Bosa (hip, oblique), RB Isaac Guerendo (foot) and LB Dre Greenlaw (Achilles) are listed as questionable.\u201d via Adam Schefter on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>Williams\u2019 absence has been a significant factor in the team\u2019s struggles. The offensive line has faced challenges in run blocking and pass protection. Moore\u2019s performance will be critical as the 49ers aim to maintain their playoff hopes.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The 49ers may be without more than Trent Williams<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3162914\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3162914\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kyle-Shanahan-1.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kyle-Shanahan-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kyle-Shanahan-1.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kyle-Shanahan-1.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kyle-Shanahan-1.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kyle-Shanahan-1.jpg?resize=150,100 150w\" alt=\"49ers' Trent Williams out amid lengthy injury report for TNF showdown vs. Rams\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3162914\">Cary Edmondson-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On the defensive side, Bosa is listed as questionable but could make his return after missing the last three games. Bosa, who was a limited participant in Wednesday\u2019s walk-through, could provide a much-needed boost to the pass rush. \u201cBosa would give the defensive line the shot in the arm they need to get after Matthew Stafford,\u201d noted Schefter. However, easing him back into action on a rotational basis may be the team\u2019s strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Another key player is Linebacker Dre Greenlaw, who has been a full participant in practice and is trending toward playing. Known for his energy and leadership, Greenlaw\u2019s potential return could lift the defense emotionally and strategically, even if he is limited to 20-25 snaps.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Related San Francisco 49ers NewsArticle continues below<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Rookie safety Malik Mustapha has been ruled out with a chest and shoulder injury, forcing Ji\u2019Ayir Brown into the starting lineup. While Brown gave up a touchdown in coverage last week, head coach Kyle Shanahan expressed confidence in his ability to step up against the Rams.<\/p>\n<p>Running back Isaac Guerendo is listed as questionable but remains the only healthy option capable of handling a significant workload. With Guerendo\u2019s dual-threat capabilities in the run and pass game, his availability will be crucial for the 49ers\u2019 offensive rhythm. Left guard Ben Bartch is also sidelined with a high ankle sprain, adding further strain to an offensive line already missing its cornerstone in Williams.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday\u2019s game presents a challenging test for the 49ers, with key injuries on both sides of the ball. While Williams\u2019 absence will be difficult to overcome, potential returns from Bosa, Greenlaw, and Guerendo could provide the spark needed to stay competitive against a tough Rams team. As the season hangs in the balance, every player\u2019s contribution will count.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the 49ers prepare for their huge Week 14 matchup with the Rams, they will be without Trent Williams for another week in a must-win game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":17226,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[62,256,88],"class_list":["post-17225","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-nfl-injury","tag-nick-bosa","tag-trent-williams"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>49ers&#039;
