Seahawks HC Mike Macdonald Announces Leonard Williams Injury News Before 49ers Game

Landover, Maryland - September 27: Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald announced that defensive tackle Leonard Williams is cleared to play in Sunday's game against the undefeated San Francisco 49ers, ending a week of uncertainty.

Friday's announcement confirms Williams' availability, providing a significant boost for Seattle as they prepare to face the 49ers, who enter the game unbeaten at 4-0.
