    After trailing 10-0 at the start of the second quarter, the Raiders battled all the way back to force a tie in their preseason finale versus the San Francisco 49ers.

    Tyreik McCallister got things going for the Raiders with a momentum-shifting 81-yard punt return with under 10 minutes to go in the second quarter.

    The 49ers were quick to bounce back, as rookie Isaac Guerendo took the ensuing kickoff 93 yards for a big return of his own, setting San Francisco up for an easy score from the four-yard line.

    Later in the second quarter, Nathan Peterman led a methodical 10-play, 79-yard drive to cut San Francisco's lead to three. The game entered halftime 17-14 in favor of the 49ers.

    The Raiders offense kept things rolling in the second half, with Carter Bradley connecting on a deep shot to Tyreik McCallister for a 35-yard touchdown, capping off a six-play, 81-yard drive and giving Las Vegas their first lead of the night.

    The 49ers responded later in the third quarter, as Josh Dobbs led an 11-play, 55-yard drive to put San Francisco ahead 24-21 with under two minutes left in the third quarter.

    Las Vegas' next three drives saw a punt, an interception, and another punt before Carter Bradley and the Raiders marched down the field to put them in field goal range, tying the game up at 24-24 with 16 seconds remaining.

    The Raiders will look ahead to their Week 1 matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers on September 8, looking to start the 2024 season 1-0.
