When, where will 49ers and Steelers' Week 1 game be broadcast?

The 49ers take to the road for Week 1, and they'll visit the Steelers in a game that'll be shown in most parts of the country.

The San Francisco 49ers and Pittsburgh Steelers aren't natural rivals by any means, yet both franchises are among the most iconic in NFL history, boasting rich and storied traditions that span decades.

Both teams are also capable of drawing fans from not only across the country, but also from around the world.

These two squads haven't faced off against each other since 2019, which was a 24-20 home win for the Niners, although the last time San Francisco visited Pittsburgh, the Steelers pulled off a dominant 43-18 win in 2015.

Now, these two teams will open up against each other in Pittsburgh for Week 1.
