What channel is 49ers vs. Broncos on today? Schedule, time for ‘Sunday Night Football’ in Week 3

A new face in a new place faces off against a familiar foe on Sunday night.

Russell Wilson is playing his third game in Denver as the passer for the Broncos, but he has plenty of familiarity with the 49ers. As a former member of the Seahawks, Wilson owned the 49ers during his tenure in Seattle, amassing a 16-4 record versus his former NFC West rival.

Wilson won’t just be facing a familiar foe, but a familiar quarterback, too. After Trey Lance exited Sunday’s game with a season-ending ankle injury, Jimmy Garoppolo re-entered and lead San Francisco to a big win over Wilson’s former team.
