The San Francisco 49ers emerged from the 2019 season as the NFC West champions thanks to a Week 17
win over the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. Now that we know who boasts the NFC West crown, we also know the complete list of San Francisco's opponents for next season.
The NFL will not announce dates and times for the 2020 season until April. This season's schedule was
released on April 17.
As it does every season, San Francisco will play each NFC West opponent twice next year. The team will also face the entire AFC East and NFC East, and this season's first-place opponents from the NFC North and NFC South.
Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will face his former team, the New England Patriots, for the first time with the 2020 matchup taking place in Foxborough. There should be plenty of media hype surrounding that game.
Facing the other NFC division winners means a game against the Green Bay Packers at Levi's Stadium and returning to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome to face the New Orleans Saints.
Below are the 49ers' matchups for next season with the division opponents listed first and then the remaining teams in alphabetical order.
