The NFL preseason will kick off on August 2 with a matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and the Chicago Bears in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game. After that, the entire league will begin their exhibition play.
Below are the 2018 preseason opponents for the San Francisco 49ers.

The 49ers will open the 2018 preseason by hosting the Dallas Cowboys at Levi's Stadium before heading on the road for matchups against the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts.
The 49ers and Cowboys have faced each other at Levi's Stadium during each of the last two regular seasons. San Francisco is hosting the Cowboys in the preseason for only the second time since 1987.
