As noted, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was with Washington when tackle Trent Williams was drafted in 2010. There were other reports that the Minnesota Vikings are also in conversation with Washington for Williams.
Williams, 31, is a seven-time Pro Bowl selection. Washington made him the No. 4 overall selection in 2010 after playing college football at Oklahoma. Williams has 120 game appearances and 119 starts through his nine NFL seasons.
