💨 Abstract

An Associated Press article covers Ricky Pearsall's challenging rookie season with the San Francisco 49ers. Plagued by injuries and surviving a shooting in August, Pearsall played in 11 games and showed flashes of promise, particularly in the final two games of the season. His 2025 season takes on increased significance with key receivers unavailable. Pearsall, despite mental challenges from the shooting, remains focused on his football career and personal growth.
