Schefter: 49ers optimistic Trent Williams can play vs. Packers, will go through pre-game warmup

The San Francisco 49ers are dealing with a number of major injuries this week, with several stars out against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday in what could be considered close to a must-win game.

Quarterback Brock Purdy won’t play after he suffered a shoulder injury last week, with the pain clearly lingering into this week, as the star didn’t practice before being ruled out.

The issue is significant as the 49ers will now go into a crucial game against the 7-3 Packers with Brandon Allen at quarterback. Josh Dobbs will back up the veteran, while the team elected not to elevate a third quarterback.
