Mykel Williams on PUP list to start the season
The San Francisco 49ers placed defensive lineman Mykel Williams on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, per Adam Schefter. The move means Williams, a former first-round pick, is out for at least the first four games of the 2025 season.
Players on the Reserve/PUP list cannot practice or play during the period they are designated. Williams becomes eligible to return after the four-game minimum, at which point the team has 21 days to activate him or keep him sidelined.
Does this affect your fantasy roster?
Williams plays defense, so this has no direct bearing on fantasy scoring for any offensive player. In deeper IDP leagues that roster defensive linemen, drop Williams from your active roster and check back around Week 5 for a return timeline.
