In what can be described as a miracle story, San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has made his way back from a gunshot wound suffered mere months ago and is now quickly becoming a dominant force in this Kyle Shanahan offense.
After losing starting receiver Brandon Aiyuk for the season the 49ers have been leaning on a now healthy Pearsall to help this offense move. In his first three starts with the team Pearsall has already wracked up 11 catches, 132 yards, and found his first touchdown last Sunday against a tough Tampa Bay defense. Pearsall has improved his numbers with each game he has played this season, and will look to be more involved in this creative offense as his super-athlete skillset meshes perfectly with what San Francisco likes to do.

With superstar Christian McCaffrey back on the field and the emergence of Juan Jennings, teams are going to have a headache attempt to defend San Francisco’s stable of athletic playmakers and Pearsall should experience more and more success moving forward into the season. If this offense can rally behind this unique offensive group, the 49ers will once again be able to make plenty of noise during a playoff push.
