Ricky Pearsall Not Ready for WR1 Status in San Francisco?
Ricky Pearsall. With 49ers wideout Jauan Jennings (calf) returning to practice on Monday, Tafur and Barrows write that "Jennings' return allows the 49ers to not put too much on Pearsall's plate after all." A first-round pick in 2024, Pearsall's rookie season was delayed by a gunshot wound he suffered in the offseason. He returned in Week 7 and recorded 31 receptions for 400 yards and three touchdowns in 11 games. Pearsall has been one of the big risers in fantasy drafts in recent weeks and could be a value as a WR3/flex, but it appears at least two of the team's beat writers feel expectations for the 24-year-old need to be reined in.
