Cornerback Richard Sherman expressed a desire to stay with the San Francisco 49ers that he knows is unlikely to be realized. When it comes to teammate Trent Williams, Sherman believes it will be a different result.
Williams joined Sherman on the Cris Collinsworth Podcast and they discussed possible destinations for each other with the free agency in just a week. Sherman and his colleague George Chahrouri have indicated that they believe Williams will remain with the 49ers.
“I have San Francisco. I made him stay in San Francisco for the faithful, ”said Sherman. “I think he is in San Francisco. I think he makes you happy for another 5 to 6 years, picks up your golden jacket and decides whether you want it in Washington or San Francisco. “
Williams did not disagree with his assessment.
“It’s not a bad idea, folks,” replied Williams. “This is not a bad shot. You are barking at the right tree. “
Williams was negotiated with the 49ers from Washington last year after being out for a season due to ill health and a dispute with the organization over his treatment.
Williams and Sherman are considered unrestricted free agents.
When it comes to Sherman, Williams has named several AFC teams with the hope of not having to play against him.
“As long as he doesn’t go back to Seattle, I can handle anything. I definitely don’t want to see him twice a year if I’m in San Francisco, ”said Williams.
