That’s right, after an encouraging summer overshadowed by Brandon Aiyuk drama and quite literally being shot in a robbery attempt gone wrong, Pearsall looks primed to make his NFL debut and help Brock Purdy as one of the best WR3 options in the NFL.

Discussing his return to the field and how he could impact the 49ers moving forward, Purdy celebrated Pearsall in his Week 7 media availability, noting that he should be an immediate weapon in man coverage.

“He’s doing a really good job, obviously being back and just bringing the juice, going really fast in and out of his cuts and creating some really good separation. And so, obviously, we drafted him in the first round, and he’s got a lot of potential. And yeah, for him to get in and actually be a part of our offense, not just a young guy that’s trying to learn his way, but actually trying to make an impact pretty like early on, for me, I love it,” Purdy told reporters.

“It’s another great option and another part of our offense. And so, I think obviously tomorrow we’ll go through our red zone plan and stuff, but to answer your question, when you’ve got a guy like Ricky that can win man-to-man matchups and then also open up some other guys too, that’s always a good thing. So, I’m excited to see what he does.”

Facing off against a Chiefs team that knows a thing or two about how to play Kyle Shanahan’s offense, getting a player like Pearsall, who is big, fast, and effective, should make life easier for Purdy in the routine passing game and especially in the red zone, where players of his size typically thrive. While only time will tell what kind of packages Shanahan has planned for his first-round wideout, it’s safe to say fans will be incredibly excited to see what he brings to the table in live NFL action.
