NFL Drafts 2026 Schedule to Keep 49ers Fresh and Less Jet-Lagged

The NFL reportedly shaped the 2026 schedule with travel and jet lag in mind for the San Francisco 49ers, aiming to keep them fresher on longer trips. Fox Sports projects the 49ers as the NFC’s top seed due to a favorable schedule and a solid free-agent class including Mike Evans, though the NFC West remains unpredictable. The team is slated for two Thursday games, with only one on three days’ rest, as the league balances prime-time exposure with late-season competitiveness and avoids benching starters when playoff chances are still alive.
