San Francisco 49ers to host Minnesota Vikings in Mexico City

0


The 49ers could be facing a very familiar quarterback when they play in Mexico City this season.

The NFL revealed on Wednesday that the 49ers will face the Vikings in their Week 11 trip to Mexico City. That means a potential matchup against Kyler Murray, the former Cardinals quarterback who is now playing in Minnesota. 

The matchup against the Vikings is on November 22 at Estadio Banorte Stadium. Kickoff is at 5:20 pm PT. It will be the NFL’s first trip back to Mexico since the 49ers beat the Cardinals in Mexico City in 2022.

That was also the last time the 49ers played an international game.

That all changes this year. In addition to their trip to Mexico City, the 49ers will open the season against the Rams in Melbourne Australia on September 10.
