The San Francisco 49ers visit the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, Nov. 15. San Francisco enters the matchup at 7-1, including a 2-1 road record, and holds the NFC’s No. 1 seed. Dallas is 4-5, with a 1-3 record at home.
George Kittle could reach a major franchise milestone against the Cowboys. He is 82 receiving yards away from passing Terrell Owens for second place on the 49ers’ all-time receiving yards list. Kittle has reached at least 82 yards in two of San Francisco’s eight games this season. In his most recent meeting with Dallas, he had six catches for 128 yards and a touchdown.
Kittle has 8,491 receiving yards in 132 games with the 49ers, while Owens recorded 8,572 yards in 121 games. Both trail Jerry Rice, who leads the franchise with 19,276 receiving yards, 1,281 receptions and 176 touchdowns.
## Kittle Continues Strong Season After Achilles Injury
Kittle is back on the field after tearing his Achilles tendon on Jan. 11 in San Francisco’s NFC Wild Card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He recovered in time for the regular-season opener against the Los Angeles Rams and has not missed a game this season.
The tight end leads the 49ers in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns, with 38 catches for 483 yards and five scores. Across his 10-year career in San Francisco, he has recorded 633 receptions, 8,491 yards and 57 touchdowns.
## 49ers Receiver Updates Ahead of Dallas
Wide receiver Mike Evans will miss his third consecutive game after sustaining an Achilles injury in the Week 6 matchup against the Washington Commanders. In six games this season, Evans has posted 27 receptions for 420 yards and three touchdowns.
Deebo Samuel is set to return after missing three games with a hamstring strain suffered against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5. The game will also mark the 49ers debut of veteran receiver Keenan Allen, whom San Francisco acquired from the Colts on Tuesday in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round pick.
