• 49ers' Ricky Pearsall: Gains 77 yards on SNF

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Pearsall had four receptions on as many targets for 38 yards while adding a 39-yard rush in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Cowboys. Pearsall followed his pro debut last week against Kansas City with 78 combined yards against Dallas on Sunday Night Football. The first-round rookie was more involved in his second game, garnering five touches after starting wideout Deebo Samuel (ribs) exited Sunday's victory for an already depleted receiver room. The 49ers will have the upcoming bye week to get healthy, so Pearsall may not be needed the way he was in Sunday's victory. That said, the rookie is worth a roster spot in most formats in the event San Francisco needs to rely on Pearsall following Brandon Aiyuk's (knee) season-ending injury and Samuel's uncertain status for Nov. 10 against Tampa Bay.

• 49ers' Ricky Pearsall: Making NFL debut

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Pearsall (chest) is listed as active Sunday against the Chiefs. Pearsall thus will make his long-awaited NFL debut after enduring a gunshot wound during an attempted robbery Aug. 31 that resulted in him spending the first six weeks of the campaign on the reserve/non-football injury list. With Jauan Jennings (hip) sidelined, Pearsall will have a chance to mix into the 49ers offense, but the team may prefer the veteran presence of Chris Conley as the No. 3 WR behind Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk for this high-profile matchup.

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Pearsall (chest) remains listed as questionable but is on track to make his NFL debut in Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Jay Glazer on Fox Sports reports. Pearsall (chest) was activated off the reserve/non-football injury list Saturday after he turned in a trio of full practices during Week 7 prep. With Jauan Jennings (hip) ruled out, Pearsall could get playing time on offense right away and challenge Chris Conley for the No. 3 receiver role behind Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk.

• 49ers' Ricky Pearsall: Poised for season debut

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Pearsall (chest) was activated off the reserve/non-football injury list Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's contest against the Chiefs, Field Yates of ESPN reports. This was reported Friday, but the 49ers made it official with this transaction. With Jauan Jennings (hip) out ahead of the Super Bowl rematch, it'll be interesting to see how much work Pearsall will get right out of the gate. Chris Conley, the projected No. 3 target, is a capable veteran, but Pearsall, the team's 2024 first-round pick, was reportedly back working out only a few short weeks after suffering a gunshot wound during an attempted robbery Aug. 31, and San Francisco might be comfortable deploying its intriguing prospect as prominently as it can in this must-watch matchup.

• 49ers' Ricky Pearsall: Another full practice Thursday

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Pearsall (chest) practiced fully Thursday. As for the rest of the 49ers' receiving corps, Deebo Samuel (wrist) again was limited Thursday while wearing a blue non-contract jersey, and Jauan Jennings (hip) has yet to practice this week. That marks two of the team's top three wide receivers, which may spur San Francisco to get Pearsall back on the active roster for the first time since Sept. 2. Friday's injury report will unveil whether he has a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs, but the 49ers will need to activate him from the reserve/non-football injury list by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday in order for the rookie first-round pick to have a chance to play this weekend.
