Ricky Pearsall - Page 3 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Back in action Sunday Pearsall (ankle/knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

Impact After sitting out the 49ers' Week 16 win at Indianapolis due to a sprained ankle and an aggravation of his previous PCL injury, Pearsall will return to action Week 17 following consecutive limited practices Wednesday through Friday. Considering he wasn't able to log a full session during that span, he may not be poised for his typical weekly snap share of 70-plus percent, which he's earned in six of his eight appearances this season. Nevertheless, with TE George Kittle (ankle) inactive Sunday, Pearsall and the rest of San Francisco's available pass catchers are candidates for more targets from QB Brock Purdy.

DECEMBER 28, 2025 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Set to play through injuries Pearsall (ankle/knee) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears but is likely to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Pearsall was unavailable for the 49ers' 48-27 win over the Colts this past Monday while managing his pair of injuries, but after a trio of limited practices in Week 17 prep, he appears to have made enough progress to give it a go Sunday. Assuming Pearsall is officially cleared when the 49ers release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the game's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff, he could be in line for a couple extra targets since San Francisco is expected to be without star tight end George Kittle (ankle), per Schefter. Kittle -- who is officially listed as questionable for Week 17 -- exited Monday's win due to the left ankle sprain and is unlikely to play after he failed to practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday.

Listed as questionable Pearsall (ankle/knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Bears, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Pearsall didn't play Week 16 at Indianapolis due to an ankle sprain and also an aggravation of the PCL injury that sidelined him Weeks 5-10. He practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday and Thursday, and coach Kyle Shanahan told Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com on Friday that Pearsall made it through the week "OK." In the end, Pearsall's status for Week 17 will be confirmed about 90 minutes before Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Limited again Thursday Pearsall (knee/ankle) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact In the wake of Pearsall sitting out Monday's eventual win at Indianapolis, he's received a limited listing on back-to-back injury reports as he recovers from a sprained ankle and also an aggravation of the sprained MCL that kept him out Weeks 5-10. Friday's report will unveil whether or not he has a chance to return to action Sunday versus the Bears, but if Pearsall is inhibited or sidelined for that contest, Kendrick Bourne and Demarcus Robinson again would take on increased roles behind No. 1 WR Jauan Jennings.

George Kittle misses practice with ankle injury, status for Niners' game against Bears in question

San Francisco Pro Bowl tight end George Kittle misses practice with an ankle injury, leaving his status for Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears uncertain

DECEMBER 24, 2025 • Associated Press

To be limited Wednesday Coach Kyle Shanahan said Pearsall (knee/ankle) will be limited at practice Wednesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact The 49ers have a few question marks in their receiving corps as TE George Kittle won't practice to kick off Week 17 prep due to the sprained ankle he suffered Monday at Indianapolis. Pearsall himself sat out that contest due to a low-ankle sprain and also an aggravation of the sprained PCL that sidelined him Weeks 5-10. He'll have two more chances to get back to full this week before San Francisco may make a decision on his status ahead of Sunday's game versus the Bears.

49ers' Ricky Pearsall to miss Monday night game vs. the Colts with a knee injury

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall will miss Monday night's game against the Indianapolis Colts after re-injuring his knee

DECEMBER 20, 2025 • Associated Press

Won't play Week 16 Pearsall (knee/ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Colts, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Pearsall was unable to participate in practice during Week 16 prep due to knee and ankle injuries that he sustained during the 49ers' Week 15 victory over the Titans. With Pearsall sidelined for Monday's road contest, Kendrick Bourne and Demarcus Robinson will step into larger roles on offense. Pearsall will work on progressing enough in his recovery to be available for the 49ers' Week 17 home tilt against the Bears on Sunday, Dec. 28.

Not practicing Friday Pearsall (knee/ankle) isn't practicing Friday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Pearsall came out of last week's strong showing with a pair of injuries, including an aggravation of the PCL injury that cost him Weeks 5-10 earlier this season. He hasn't practiced this week, but there's still another chance Saturday ahead of a Monday matchup at Indianapolis. San Francisco GM John Lynch suggested Friday that Pearsall has at least some shot to play, saying, "we certainly haven't ruled him out" during an appearance on KNBR radio.

Impact Coming out of the 49ers' Week 14 bye, Pearsall had his first signature performance since the first month of the season, when he hauled in six of seven targets for 96 yards during this past Sunday's win against the Titans. Afterward, Shanahan relayed that Pearsall was dealing with a low-ankle sprain and also had aggravated the previous PCL injury that sidelined him Weeks 5-10. Pearsall will have two more chances to prove his health this week before the 49ers likely tag him with a designation for Week 16 action.

Practice status this week TBD Coach Kyle Shanahan acknowledged Monday that he's unsure whether Pearsall (knee/ankle) will practice this week, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact The report notes that Pearsall, who is also dealing with a low ankle sprain, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, aggravated his PCL injury during Week 16 action, which clouds the wideout's status for next Monday's game against the Colts. If Pearsall ends up limited or sidelined, added snaps alongside Jauan Jennings would be available for Kendrick Bourne and Demarcus Robinson.

Impact Shanahan said an update on Pearsall's health will arrive Monday, and that the wide receiver "hurt the ankle on the first play and returned and played with that the whole game" Sunday, while his knee injury was "most likely irritating his PCL from the past." Pearsall secured six of seven targets for 96 yards versus the Titans, superior production to his past three appearances combined, but fantasy managers will now have to monitor his health heading into a Week 16 road matchup against the Colts. Shanahan, at least, said he expects Pearsall "to be alright."
