The San Francisco 49ers are facing significant contract issues with two crucial players, Trent Williams and Brandon Aiyuk. Williams, a star offensive tackle, has been holding out of training camp to pressure the team into a new contract, with no significant progress in negotiations. Aiyuk, meanwhile, has been involved in a prolonged contract dispute and a potential trade to the Pittsburgh Steelers, although he was recently seen at 49ers practice, indicating ongoing discussions to retain him. This situation highlights the 49ers' challenge of balancing their roster's financial demands while maintaining competitiveness. In a related development, the Atlanta Falcons acquired star edge rusher Matt Judon from the New England Patriots, bolstering their defense ahead of their Week 1 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
