Jason Cole of Bleacher Report said on a video posted Thursday morning that he spoke to a source who told him Patrick Willis is “considering a comeback.”

“Now, he’s not definitely going to do it,” Cole said. “He’s still dealing with a toe issue.”

A source close to Willis told CSNBayArea.com on Thursday, “I have not heard anything to that effect from Patrick.”

The San Francisco 49ers appear to know nothing about Willis having any second thoughts, either.

Anthony Davis announced in June he was stepping away from the NFL “for a year or so” to allow his brain and body some time to heal. He has since hinted on social media that he plans to return next season.
