Role improvement with Evans and Stribling handling intermediate area.
Ricky PearsallWRSF
Matt Harmon notes that Ricky Pearsall, a former first-rounder, will play flanker/slot for the 49ers in 2024. Pearsall had to play on-ball (vertical receiver) last year because Brandon Aiyuk never came back to the team. With the addition of Mike Evans and De'Shawn Stribling, Harmon likes that Pearsall can move around more and play less on-ball, as both Evans and Stribling can live in the intermediate area. This represents a role improvement for Pearsall, allowing him to operate in positions better suited to his skill set. Harmon expresses long-term optimism for Pearsall as part of the 49ers receiving room, with the caveat that he remains healthy.
