The NFL will unveil the league's 272-game 2024 schedule tonight at 5:00 p.m. PT. It is common for select week-to-week opponent matchups to leak before the official announcement. I've created this tracker to collect those leaks as the official schedule release time approaches.
As usual, the San Francisco 49ers will face each NFC West team twice. They will also play against the division champions from the NFC East, NFC South, and AFC West: the Dallas Cowboys, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the Kansas City Chiefs, respectively. The 49ers-Chiefs game will be a rematch of Super Bowl 58. Additionally, the Niners are scheduled to play every team from the AFC East and the NFC North.
