49ers preseason schedule: Opponents, times, TV listings

The San Francisco 49ers are looking to improve on last year's 8–8 season under new head coach Jim Tomsula. Tomsula replaces Jim Harbaugh, who mutually parted ways with the team in December.

Multiple San Francisco players retired over the off-season, including linebackers Patrick Willis and Chris Borland and defensive end Justin Smith. Additionally, defensive tackle Anthony Davis decided to take at least one year off from the NFL.

The 49ers lost receiver Michael Crabtree, running back Frank Gore and cornerback Chris Culliver to free agency, and signed wide receiver Torrey Smith and running back Reggie Bush.

The team recently cut Aldon Smith after an arrest for DUI, the latest in a string of incidents for the defensive end.
