What happened: The issue is related to the right PCL injury Pearsall suffered last season. San Francisco has expressed concern while evaluating the flare-up.

Why it matters: Pearsall appeared in nine games last season, making another interruption significant as the 49ers prepare for 2026. His availability is now a training-camp roster variable at wide receiver.

By the numbers: Pearsall played in nine of 17 regular-season games in 2025, a 53% availability rate.

What to watch: Watch whether the evaluation changes his practice status or produces a treatment decision.
