The 49ers have their share of NFL schedule wrinkles in 2021, but one small caveat is they were supposed to host the Vikings in Week 1, per a report.

The San Francisco 49ers are scheduled to travel more miles than any other team in the NFL this season — over 28,000 round-trip miles, to be exact, according to ESPN’s Brian Burke.

That’s frequently one of the many NFL schedule headaches many a West Coast team will face over the course of a season.
