Ian Williams has dominated the first-team reps at nose tackle thus far in camp and is well on his way to winning the starting job for the third consecutive season.
The San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman is entering his fifth NFL season since signing with the team as an undrafted free agent in 2011. Williams started the first nine games for the 49ers in 2014 before having his second-straight season end prematurely due to injury.
Now with a clean bill of health, Williams is poised to be a standout amongst a deep group of 49ers defensive linemen.
