It’s finally gameday for the San Francisco 49ers, who get a tough challenge to start the season against the New York Jets on Monday Night Football.
Not only will it be the new-look team’s first game of the season, but it will also be Nick Sorensen’s first game as the play-caller since he was promoted to defensive coordinator earlier this offseason.
Sorensen has been an assistant coach since 2013 after his playing days ended, spending time with the Seattle Seahawks for seven seasons, spending time as a special teams coach and a secondary coach before a one-year stint in Jacksonville as the special teams coordinator.
