3. Artificial turf in the Meadowlands sidelined four of the 49ers a few years ago

It was 2020 and S.F. was playing the Jets. Nick Bosa, Jimmy Garoppolo, Raheem Mostert, and Solomon Thomas all suffered leg injuries.

Then there's this:

The turf from that game was finally replaced THIS year with MetLife getting new turf in March. The Monday night game between the Bills and Jets was just the second regular-season game played on the new turf following the Cowboys 40-0 win over the Giants on Sunday. Although there weren't any major injuries in that game, the Rodgers injury could lead the NFL to take a closer look at the new turf.

They've been playing on that crap for three years? C'mon NFL ...



Fortunately, no 49er games are scheduled in N.Y. for 2023.
