Ricky Pearsall is a dynasty fantasy football riser and offseason winner for 2025. Read the fantasy football outlook for the 49ers wide receiver.
RotoBaller Dynasty Ranking: WR43
Dynasty Analysis: Deebo Samuel Sr. was traded, Brandon Aiyuk is coming off an injury, and an offseason in which his name has been mentioned in trade rumors. The 49ers' most significant addition to the wide receiver ranks is former Los Angeles Ram Demarcus Robinson. One way or another, Ricky Pearsall and Jauan Jennings are set to have their roles in this offense increased moving forward.
Pearsall is already on the golf course building a rapport with Brock Purdy that was already trending upward after a 2024 campaign in which Pearsall recorded zero drops on 46 targets, making him one of just three receivers to be able to say they had o drops on 45 or more targets last season.

People tend to forget that not only was Pearsall buried on the depth chart last season, but as a rookie, Pearsall missed all preseason and the first six contests of the regular season. In six games in which he, Jennings, and George Kittle lined up with Purdy, Pearsall saw a 17.6% first-read target share, averaging 9.6 fantasy points per game, putting the fantasy world on notice in Week 17 against the Lions, where he caught eight of his 10 targets for 141 yards and a touchdown.
Ricky Pearsall’s final 2 games of the season in 2024:
• 18 targets
• 14 catches
• 210 receiving yards
• 2 touchdowns pic.twitter.com/cQP2D2QTs2— Coach Yac 🗣 (@Coach_Yac) May 10, 2025
The 2024 first-round pick already seems to be forgotten about, making him a solid buy in dynasty formats at cost.
