49ers WR Ricky Pearsall Placed on Season Ending IR With PCL Injury

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall is set to miss the rest of the season after being placed on injured reserve with a PCL injury. The pass catcher has faced persistent health setbacks throughout the early stages of his professional career.

Over his first two seasons, Pearsall has missed 14 out of 34 possible games due to physical issues. His right knee injury proved particularly troublesome during the 2025 campaign, keeping him off the field for eight contests.

That same knee issue has continued to cause discomfort and hinder his full recovery. The decision to place him on season-ending injured reserve aims to prioritize his long-term recovery.

San Francisco must now adapt its offensive rotation in the absence of the young receiver. The team will look to rebuild depth while Pearsall focuses on rehabilitating his knee.
