Trent Williams certainly looks like he’ll be ready to go for the 49ers’ playoff opener this weekend.
The San Francisco All-Pro tackle — who’s been dealing with a hamstring injury — returned to Niners practice on Thursday and appeared to be moving like a guy who will play in the team’s postseason matchup with the Eagles on Sunday.
Williams donned shoulder pads and a helmet for the workout, and in videos posted by several reporters on the scene in Santa Clara, Calif., he seemed to be his usual, explosive self.
Williams blocked with relative ease in the clips, and did not show any signs that he’s favoring his leg.
The 37-year-old initially sustained the ailment early in the Niners vs. Bears game on Dec. 28, and he did not return to action after suffering the injury. He went on to miss the team’s huge matchup with the Seahawks a week later while recovering.
Williams has started 16 games for San Francisco this season.
Another injured Niner, wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (ankle, knee), was spotted at Thursday’s practice, although he worked off to the side, according to on-site media members.
The Niners’ kickoff with the Eagles in the wild-card round is slated for 1:30 p.m. PT on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
