49ers face uncertainty with George Kittle and Mykel Williams in training camp
Summary

The San Francisco 49ers are navigating training camp with both George Kittle and Mykel Williams on the Active/PUP List. Kittle is recovering from an Achilles injury sustained in January 2026, while Williams is rehabilitating from a torn ACL suffered last November. With the season opener in Australia approaching, both players could be activated if their rehabilitation progresses favorably. A decision will be needed on their status by the end of the first four games, as neither can remain on the Active/PUP List during the regular season if they are not ready to play.
