49ers obtain latest Levi's Stadium field from Arizona desert

SANTA CLARA –- The 49ers are working with a different supplier of sod to get Levi’s Stadium in playing shape for Sunday’s exhibition game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Evergreen Turf of Chandler, Ariz., which also supplies the playing field for the Cardinals’ University of Phoenix Stadium, installed the grass surface that will be used for one game, the company revealed Friday via its Twitter account.

The 49ers have confirmed the new supplier, but their relationship with West Coast Turf of Stevinson (Merced County) will continue. West Coast Turf may be the supplier for the next complete re-sodding of Levi’s Stadium for the regular-season opener on Monday, Sept.
