49ers prepare for Falcons while considering trade options ahead of deadline

The San Francisco 49ers face the Atlanta Falcons on October 29, 2026, as they look to maintain their undefeated record at 6-0. The team will be without Mike Evans due to injury, prompting discussions about potential trade moves before the November 10 deadline. General manager John Lynch hinted at the possibility of low-cost acquisitions, primarily because some injured receivers are expected to return post-bye week. The defense, led by Raheem Morris, has room for improvement, especially if key players recover from injuries in the upcoming weeks.
