San Francisco police officer recounts helping Ricky Pearsall after being shot until ambulances arrived

San Francisco 49ers receiver Ricky Pearsall was released from the hospital on Sunday after suffering a bullet wound to the chest. The first-round draft pick out of Florida was shot during an alleged attempted robbery at San Francisco’s Union Square on Saturday.

Pearsall’s mother posted

that said her son was shot through the chest, but the bullet didn’t hit any vital organs.

However, blood loss could have been a fatal factor for Pearsall if not for the intervention of a San Francisco Police sergeant who quickly found the receiver on the scene. Pearsall was bleeding badly from his wound, as

to the San Francisco Chronicle’s St. John Barned-Smith.

By that time, she’d grabbed Pearsall’s shirt, pressing it into his chest to create pressure on the wound. She pressed her baseball cap against the exit wound in his back.

“I was using my hand for the front just to create a suction so the air wouldn’t enter the wound,” she said.

She said she could feel him getting tense, the anxiety and ***** filling him as he realized the extent of his injuries. He was a football player, he said, for the 49ers.

Pearsall, soon to be 24, was the 49ers’ first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, No. 31 overall. In five college seasons — three at Arizona State, two at Florida — he had 159 catches for 2,420 yards and 14 touchdowns.

During training camp, Pearsall had dealt with hamstring and shoulder injuries. Now, it’s uncertain when he could return to football activities after suffering this gunshot wound.
