News summary

San Francisco 49ers' left tackle Trent Williams ended his holdout and signed a restructured three-year, $82.66 million contract, which includes $48 million guaranteed and a $25.69 million signing bonus. Williams had been seeking security as his previous contract lacked guaranteed money, and his holdout led to over $4 million in fines. The 36-year-old is now one of the highest-paid offensive tackles in the league, securing his position with the 49ers despite potential risks of injury and age-related performance decline. Williams described the negotiation process as a 'war' where both sides made compromises but ultimately reached a 'win-win' agreement. The new contract ensures Williams' presence for the upcoming season's opener against the New York Jets, alongside recently re-signed wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk.
