- Despite the dominant victory, San Francisco lost multiple contributors to injury when wide receiver DeMarcus Robinson exited on a cart in the second quarter with an ankle issue.
- The 49ers visit the Arizona Cardinals next Sunday, while the Dolphins return home to host the Kansas City Chiefs in their respective upcoming matchups.
