NFL Week 3 Sunday Schedule: 49ers vs. Broncos gets SNF treatment

Although the Sunday Night Football timeslot is generally reserved for one of the top games of the week, the contest in prime time in week 3 is shaping up to be a relatively mediocre contest. The San Francisco 49ers saw their preferred starting quarterback, Trey Lance, lost for the season with a broken ankle.
