Three things to watch for in the 49ers’ preseason opener against the Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers begin their 2019 campaign at Levi’s Stadium on Saturday, both with very different expectations on their shoulders.

The Cowboys are coming off of an NFC East title and an NFC Divisional Round loss, looking to take the next step towards a sixth Super Bowl. Dallas will be returning their main core, spearheaded by quarterback Dak Prescott, running back Ezekiel Elliot and wideout Amari Cooper.

Despite the excitement among most Cowboys’ fans for the upcoming season, most of it has been tapered with the ongoing holdout by Elliot in his battle for a contract extension with Dallas.
