• 49ers rookie DL Mykel Williams says rehab from his torn ACL is going well. He said he “should be” ready to go right around training camp if not just before it opens. (Wagoner)
• 49ers TE George Kittle said his Achilles tear was a best-case scenario – up high toward the soleus muscle: “I had a clean tear. They didn’t have to drill into my heel. And where the repair was was where there’s more blood flow. So it takes some time off the recovery time.” (Matt Barrows)

Rams

During a recent podcast appearance, Rams QB Matthew Stafford was asked if this is his last chance to win a Super Bowl.

“I try not to think about that kind of stuff,” Stafford told Jim Gray on the Let’s Go! podcast. “I just try to enjoy the team that I’m on and the moment that I’m in. I love coming to work.

Glad he’s a Seahawk.”

Seahawks QB Sam Darnold said that Kupp has shown up in ways that don’t show up in the box score.

“Coop’s been great,” Darnold said. “*He’s obviously such a great leader for us. But the way he’s stepped up—I don’t think people realize what he does in the run game as a blocker. He’s one of the best, if not the best, run-blocking receiver that I’ve ever seen, or in the NFL, throughout his entire career. And with the accolades and everything that he’s done in the NFL, to be unselfish like that in the run game, it’s something special. But, yeah, he’s obviously been showing up, throughout practice and training camp, all those things as a receiver and catching the rock. And so for him to do that in a game and in games, especially in big-time games, that’s huge...
