Trent Williams got away with a punch — and a possible ejection — before halftime Thursday night against the Giants, as the 49ers’ offensive lineman swung at defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson with seconds remaining in the second quarter.
Williams and Robinson were both penalized for unnecessary roughness, but the punch wasn’t mentioned in the calls from officials.
Everything appeared to start with Robinson giving another offensive lineman an extra shove after San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy opted to kneel for the final play of the half with the 49ers in the lead.
