00:00Yeah.

00:01Yeah.

00:05San Francisco 49er superstar left tackle Trent Williams.

00:08It's reported is yesterday, a three-year restructured contract

00:1282.66 million dollar deal.

00:1548 million dollars wired to his bank account.

00:19The minute he put his name on that bottom line or excuse me,

00:2125 million dollars wired.

00:23But $48 million that's going to be guaranteed for him.

00:26Why that signing bonus and also long-term guarantees.

00:29Here's what I want to talk about here. Trent Williams, yes, he is aging here. The San Francisco

00:3349ers to UBSI want to win a Super Bowl. They could not risk playing the New York Jets defense

00:39without their best offensive lineman. He knew that as a player. The team knew it as a general manager.

00:44They came to an agreement here, and the big boy is back on the field. Superstar Trent Williams

00:49will be there to fend off those New York Jets attackers. Yeah, I mean, rightfully so, right?

00:5536 years of age. He's not getting any younger. You've always got that chance of injury and

01:00health. He had no guaranteed money going over the next three seasons. He's been sitting around the

01:04last couple of months watching players with not even a tenth of the resume that he holds

01:10getting the bag over him. So he's saying, hey, I know my worth in this league. I know my worth

01:15for the San Francisco 49ers. And they understand in that building. They know the championship

01:19window is right here. It's right now. You've got Brock Purdy on a basement bargain kind of deal.

01:25We don't know how much longer that's going to go for. You've got your wide receivers for, what,

01:28another year, two years. So look, this is a great move here. Trent Williams, he's certainly worth

01:34every single bit of it. $48 million in guaranteed money. So great stuff there for the big fella.

01:41You look at the career. 11-time Pro Bowler. I mean, he is up there with the absolute very best

01:47of them. For the 49ers, they do hold the best roster in football. I think that is the consensus.

01:52And now they get set to play the Jets on Monday night. So I think this is great stuff,

01:56Donnie, and absolutely worth every penny.
