Ricky Pearsall may become an excellent wide receiver one day, but don't expect him to do much during his rookie season. That's partly because he can't stay healthy. He pulled his hamstring before training camp.
may become an excellent wide receiver one day, but don't expect him to do much during his rookie season.
But even if he were 100 percent healthy, he would be no higher than fourth on the 49ers' wide-receiver depth chart behind Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings. And the 49ers rarely play their fourth receiver. As things currently stand, if everything were to go Pearsall's way, he most likely would play roughly 250 snaps and catch 15 passes this season. Because he's not the 49ers' fourth receiver. Not yet, anyway. Chris Conley is.
