San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott: “There is no indication that he (Pearsall) was targeted because he’s a football player. At this point, we believe that this was an attempted robbery and we’re pretty confident about that.”

Ricky Pearsall starred at Florida before Niners draft selection

The Niners selected Pearsall with the 31st overall pick of the draft, adding him to a wide receiver room that already included All-***** Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel. Soon after the ********* was reported, Samuel tweeted that Pearsall is “good.”

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White, who played with Pearsall at Arizona State, also posted a response

.

Pearsall played at Arizona State and Florida in his college career, with 965 receiving yards and six total touchdowns in his final season with the Gators. He was mostly seen as a second-round prospect entering the draft, but was well-regarded for his route running and soft hands as a slot receiver.

Injuries had so far limited Pearsall’s first NFL training camp, spending time on the reserve/non-football injury list with a hamstring injury and working through a shoulder injury after his activation. It’s unclear how much time he will to miss due to his gunshot wound.
