For the first time since 2020, the San Francisco 49ers opened the season at home, taking on the New York Jets for a “Monday Night Football” matchup. The red and gold secured a 32-19 victory over the Jets, with the notable absence of All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey, who is still battling a calf/Achilles injury suffered early in training camp. A complete, three-phase effort resulted in a primetime victory to start the year.
