There is a possibility that Trent Williams doesn't play for the 49ers against the Jets.
However, it's still possible that the two sides will continue to be at an impasse. Williams is 36 years old after all, so that could be the hesitation for the 49ers. If he's looking for added years to his deal, then it's even a tougher hurdle. Whatever it is that's holding this all up, Williams will not return unless his demands are met.
His absence in Week 1 would lessen the chances of the 49ers winning if not outright losing. So, can the 49ers defeat the Jets without Williams? Then there is the aspect of his run blocking. Whether it is running to his side or using him as a pulling blocker, he creates incredible running lanes. They are wide enough for a fan in the stands to run through and be efficient.
