Expected to play this season 49ers general manager John Lynch said Tuesday that he expects Pearsall (chest/shoulder) to come off the reserve/non-football injury and play at some point this season, Nick Wagoner... Impact Lynch said Pearsall's recovery has been "nothing short of miraculous," as the rookie wide receiver returned to team facilities Tuesday after having been shot as the victim of an attempted robbery on Saturday. Due to having been placed on the reserve/NFI-list on Monday, Pearsall is ruled out for at least the first four games of the regular season, but it's a positive sign for his health to hear Lynch's confidence that the first-rounder will suit up at some point in his rookie season.
