It's already confirmed that the San Francisco 49ers will kick off their 2024 regular season at home against the New York Jets on "Monday Night Football." However, that Week 1 matchup won't be the only time head coach Kyle Shanahan's team takes the spotlight on Monday night.

Joe Buck disclosed on "Good Morning America" that ESPN and ABC have scheduled a second matchup featuring the Niners.

When discussing additional matchups beyond the debut game, Buck mentioned, "We know that we also have the Cowboys twice, and we've got the Chiefs twice. We've got the Bills twice. We've got another date with the 49ers."

San Francisco had two Monday night appearances last season: an October 23 loss to the Minnesota Vikings and a Christmas night defeat against the Baltimore Ravens, which aired on ABC.

Since 2018, the 49ers have played at least one Monday night game each season. Coming off a Super Bowl appearance, San Francisco is again anticipated to be regularly featured in prime time during the 2024 season.
