Ricky Pearsall Posts Another Dud in Week 13

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was held to two catches for 14 yards on three targets in the team's 26-8 win over the Browns on Sunday. He now has five catches on nine targets for 20 yards since returning from his PCL injury in Week 11. High winds in Cleveland limited the effectiveness of the 49ers' passing attack, as quarterback Brock Purdy completed just 16 of his 29 pass attempts in the game. Jauan Jennings, George Kittle, and Christian McCaffrey accounted for half of the team's targets, leaving Pearsall once again the odd man out. The 49ers get a bye in Week 14, but Pearsall may be worth a stash. In Weeks 15 through 17, Pearsall will see favorable matchups against the Titans, Colts, and Bears, which could lead to a boon in production over the fantasy football playoffs.

Ricky Pearsall A Risky Start For Week 13

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) had another disappointing finish in Week 12, logging two catches for eight yards on three targets. It was another disappointing finish following his one-catch, zero-yard performance in Week 11 after a six-game absence while managing a PCL injury. Now playing with a healthy Jauan Jennings and George Kittle in the lineup and the offense flowing through Christian McCaffrey, Pearsall seems to be the odd man out in the 49ers' passing attack. On Sunday, Pearsall faces a Browns defense that has offered the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game and a weather forecast in Cleveland featuring 25 MPH winds, rain, and snow. With the team trends, matchup, and elements working against Pearsall, he projects as a WR5 in Week 13.

Ricky Pearsall Needs to Prove Himself to Fantasy Managers

Since returning from the knee injury that caused him to miss six games, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has caught three passes in his last two outings for only six yards. In leagues without an IR spot, Pearsall was a frustrating hold on the hopes that he would reignite his early-season success immediately upon return. His 281 receiving yards through the first three weeks of the season trailed only OPOY candidate Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but as he eases his way closer to a full workload, his involvement over the past two games has made him unplayable. It should be noted that George Kittle left early in the season opener with a hamstring injury, clearing a path to the promising WR1 workload for Pearsall. However, with a healthy Kittle playing in both games since his return, Pearsall has been out-targeted by the All-Pro tight end 15-to-6. The 49ers face a stingy Cleveland defense in Week 13 before a Week 14 bye, making Pearsall one of the league's bigger question marks heading into the fantasy playoffs.

Ricky Pearsall Seeking Better Performance In Second Game Back

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall's (knee) returned to action in Week 11 after a six-week absence due to a knee injury sustained in Week 4. Unfortunately, the second-year wideout had just one catch for no gain on two targets in the 49ers' 41-22 trouncing of the Cardinals. On the positive side, Pearsall's knee injury appears to be in the rearview. Pearsall had a 75% snap share in Week 11 and logged a full practice on Thursday and Friday ahead of the 49ers' upcoming game against the Carolina Panthers. Fantasy football managers are advised to keep an eye out for the 49ers' final injury report, which will be due out Saturday as the team plays on Monday night. Barring any sort of reinjury in his final practice of the week, Pearsall projects as a WR3 and can be plugged into starting lineups for Week 12.

Ricky Pearsall Practicing in Full, Set for More Production in Week 12?

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) returned in Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals for the first time since spraining the PCL in his right knee way back in Week 4. Pearsall played a healthy 75% of the offensive snaps in Week 11, but he was targeted only two times by quarterback Brock Purdy, catching one of them for no gain. The 25-year-old was a full participant on Thursday in the first practice of the week, heading into a Week 12 game on Monday night against the Carolina Panthers. A full week of full practices could help the former first-rounder become more involved on game day this week in his second game back. The Niners were up big for most of the day last Sunday against Arizona, so they didn't need to air the ball out. The game script should be more favorable in Week 12, and Pearsall should be more involved as he continues to get his legs back under him.

Ricky Pearsall Returning For Rematch With Cardinals

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) has no designation on the team's final injury report ahead of their divisional clash with the Arizona Cardinals in Week 11. When San Francisco last faced Arizona, in Week 3, Pearsall had his most productive game of the season, catching eight of 11 targets for 117 receiving yards. Jauan Jennings and George Kittle both missed that game due to injury, making Pearsall the focus of the 49ers' passing attack. With all three pass-catchers now healthy, there will be less work for Pearsall, but he could see better production as the defense won't be able to focus their efforts on any one player. Pearsall's return coincides with that of Brock Purdy (toe), who provides a slight bump to the prospects of San Francisco's skill players. Pearsall projects as a borderline WR3/4 in Week 11 with the upside that comes with being his team's preferred deep threat.

Ricky Pearsall Will Play in Week 11

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Thursday that wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) will return on Sunday to face the division-rival Arizona Cardinals in Week 11, according to KNBR. Pearsall finally returned to practice this week after spraining the PCL in his knee way back in Week 4, and he'll be back on the field this weekend as the Niners look to sweep the season series against Arizona. In addition to Pearsall, quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) will be back. Both players have been sidelined since Week 4. The banged-up 49ers are getting closer to full health on offense. Pearsall, a first-rounder in 2024, caught 20 of his 29 targets for 327 yards and no touchdowns in four games this year before injuring his knee. He will definitely be a starter in three-wide sets now that he's back, but he may be eased back into the offense, making him a shaky fantasy play in his first game back this weekend.

Ricky Pearsall Back at Practice, a Strong Buy-Low Candidate

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) is a receiver that could make an impact as the season progresses. After missing the last five games with a PCL injury, Pearsall returned to practice Wednesday alongside quarterback Brock Purdy, who's also been sidelined with a toe injury. With both players trending toward returning, fantasy managers should keep Pearsall on their radar. In his three full games this season, the rookie recorded 16 receptions on 24 targets for 281 yards, though he has yet to score a touchdown. With Brandon Aiyuk's return still uncertain, Pearsall carries WR2 potential and is a strong buy-low candidate in fantasy.

Ricky Pearsall Limited in his Return to Practice on Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) returned to practice on Thursday for the first time since suffering a sprained PCL in his knee in Week 4. Nick Wagoner of ESPN reports that Pearsall was slated to be limited in his first practice back. It gives Pearsall a chance to return this weekend for a divisional game against the Arizona Cardinals, but the 25-year-old former first-rounder will probably need to upgrade to a full practice on Thursday or Friday to have a legitimate shot at returning on Sunday. Given his long layoff, fantasy managers should expect Pearsall to be eased back into the offense as well, which means he'll be a pretty risky fantasy play whenever he does return. In addition to Pearsall nearing his return, the Niners could have quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) back for the first time since Week 4. When Pearsall returns, he could be the No. 4 aerial target behind running back Christian McCaffrey, receiver Jauan Jennings, and tight end George Kittle.

49ers Hoping Ricky Pearsall Will Practice This Week

The San Francisco 49ers are hoping to get wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) back at practice this week, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. The 49ers have been hopeful of getting Pearsall back from a PCL sprain that he suffered back in the Week 4 loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars for several weeks now, but it has not happened. The 25-year-old former first-rounder has not practiced or played since injuring his right knee, and even if he's able to get back onto the practice field this week, it doesn't mean he'll be active on Sunday for a Week 11 divisional matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. "Hopefully the next two days go good, and if they do, he'll be back out there. He had a good weekend," head coach Kyle Shanahan said. The Niners have been without both Pearsall and quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) since Week 4. When Pearsall does return, he could be the No. 3 target in the passing game behind Jauan Jennings and tight end George Kittle.
