Williams isn’t the only 49er destined for the Hall of Fame who could have ended up in Los Angeles. In 2022, San Francisco general manager John Lynch detailed how he won a “a 49ers-Rams tug-of-war” in getting star running back Christian McCaffrey from Carolina.

The Niners were fresh off a roster revamp, saying goodbye to nearly 20 players in the offseason, 15 of whom landed deals elsewhere worth up to a maximum of $341.5 million. In their place, the 49ers leaned into their youth, with an 11-man draft class and a free agent group that had no marquee players.

In Week 6, Malik Mustapha came back. The 49ers used Sigle in a platoon with Mustapha for two games, but once Mustapha took his role back over, there were no more snaps for Sigle. The 49ers move Ji’Ayir Brown into the starting lineup and slide Jason Pinnock into the nickel, making Sigle the fourth safety.
