Williams ejected as things get tough late in 49ers’ loss to Chiefs originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Trent Williams was sent off late in the game. 49ers’ 28-18 loss to the Chiefs Sunday at Levi’s Stadium after hitting Kansas City safety Bryan Cook during a fight between the two players.
Things got tough between the two bitter rivals late in the fourth quarter, when 49ers cornerback Deommodore Lenoir got into a shoving match with Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore after Mecole Hardman scored an 18-yard touchdown on a jet sweep to ice the game.
Williams wasn’t too upset about the ejection as he stopped to sign autographs for 49ers fans before heading down the tunnel to the San Francisco locker room.
This isn’t the first time Williams has been ejected from a big 49ers game, as he was ejected from San Francisco’s 2023 NFC Championship Game loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
At the end of that game, Williams knocked Eagles safety K’Von Wallace to the ground, resulting in his disqualification.
Williams and the 49ers lost their cool in a brutal loss to the Chiefs, and coach Kyle Shanahan probably won’t be happy with what happened.
