According to Chase Senior of Chat Sports, the San Francisco 49ers met with former Clemson wide receiver Antonio Williams at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.

"Really dynamic with the ball in his hands after the catch," Senior wrote. "He said his biggest strength is separation. The 49ers WR room really struggled with that in 2025."

San Francisco's wide receiver room could undergo significant turnover this offseason. Brandon Aiyuk is widely expected to be traded or released after the start of the new league year, while Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, and Skyy Moore are all slated to become free agents.

The 49ers are expected to explore both free agency and the 2026 NFL Draft to replenish their receiving corps.

Williams (5-11, 190) spent four seasons at Clemson. Over his collegiate career, he recorded 208 receptions for 2,336 yards and 21 touchdowns. He also contributed 187 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns on 25 carries, while completing four passes for 143 yards and two touchdowns, according to Sports Reference.

In 2025, Williams finished with 55 receptions for 604 yards and four touchdowns. He also added 78 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown, as well as a 75-yard passing touchdown. His performance during the season earned him third-team All-ACC honors.

Williams' most productive statistical season came in 2024, when he recorded 75 receptions for 904 yards and 11 touchdowns. He also added seven carries for 101 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown, while completing two passes for 62 yards and a touchdown. That performance earned him first-team All-ACC honors.
