2024 first-round pick and 2025 Harris Football flag player Pearsall's knee swelled up at the very beginning of training camp; beat reporters leaked that the team is very concerned about his future and he might need knee surgery. Harris has cratered Pearsall's rank to around 70 among wideouts, putting him outside the top 160, and says he will not draft him right now. The timing of the Debo Samuel signing reinforces concern about Pearsall's status.PositiveValueJul 21, 2026
The source notes Pearsall had a much more interesting year two than his zero-touchdown stat line suggests; his ADOT was higher, targets per route run were higher, and he was earning more volume at deeper depth with more room for yardage. His yards per target and yards per route run both increased by more than half a yard, indicating a breakout trajectory before injury. The source is optimistic on him as a value if he gets a quiet August with no injury drama, believing people will be hoodwinked by bad stats and a frustrating season.PositiveProjectionJul 21, 2026
Pearsall has looked very good when healthy but has struggled with availability over two years; the source cautions against overreacting to his zero touchdowns last year, noting that fantasy analysts tend to overweight single-season touchdown totals (similar to the Devante Adams discussion), and expects positive camp chatter without major role changes.PositiveSleeperMay 7, 2026
Ricky Pearsall is considered a sleeper pick, especially in PPR formats, despite competition from other receivers.
