After reuniting with his former Arizona State teammate Brandon Aiyuk, the first-round pick is looking to make an immediate impact with the NFC champions’ star-studded offense.
Ricky Pearsall wondered what life would have been like had he never walked away from the batter’s box in the middle of a tee ball game to go run around the playground.. “I just put the bat down and ran to that park and started playing over there. Baseball was never for me.”when he’s not training on the football field.
But before leading up, I only met with them at the Senior Bowl for 10 minutes and some scouts, but there’s a lot of familiarity with people there and people that I came across in my path. I bet they knew a lot about me, through conversations with that. Obviously, my former teammate Brandon Aiyuk was over there. They were aware of me, but I really didn’t meet with them.
Pearsall had a breakout season with the Gators in 2023, making 65 catches for 965 yards and four touchdowns. / Kirby Lee-USA TODAY SportsIt’s going to create that competition for me to go out there and compete each and every day. But also at the same time just learn from them. Those guys are doing it at a high level and they’re veterans. I’m just going to soak up as much information as I can to benefit my own game. I’m humble enough to understand that.
I really don’t pay attention to that stuff, but to see Brandon Aiyuk say something encouraging to me, who’s a teammate of mine, a friend of mine, and he’s having success at a high level, it’s definitely encouraging for me to see that.
