Should You Start or Roster Ricky Pearsall?
Pearsall showed real growth in his nine 2025 games, posting an outstanding 0.504 EPA per play and 62.3 percent success rate while averaging 14.67 yards per catch on a deep 14.11 air yards per target. He turned a modest 9.6 percent target share into 36 grabs for 528 yards, with 25 receptions of 10-plus yards proving the downfield juice, though zero touchdowns on just four red-zone looks capped his 52.6 points (WR57). The leap over his rookie year (0.184 EPA, 1.47 yards per route) signals an ascending player.
The 2024 first-rounder (Pick 31, Florida) sits in a crowded 49ers passing tree, so his fantasy fate hinges on volume that has not yet arrived (under 10 percent target share both seasons) and on positive touchdown regression. The talent and draft capital point up, and an injury ahead of him would unlock WR2 upside. For now he is a high-ceiling WR4 and dynasty buy, a flex dart with breakout equity rather than a reliable starter.

Ricky Pearsall Rest-of-Season Outlook
Efficient depth WR on the sideline for now
On injured reserve, knee - pcl.
Preseason Projection vs. Reality
He finished WR72 last season at 9.8 points per game.
Our 2026 Preseason Outlook
Pearsall showed real growth in his nine 2025 games, posting an outstanding 0.504 EPA per play and 62.3 percent success rate while averaging 14.67 yards per catch on a deep 14.11 air yards per target. He turned a modest 9.6 percent target share into 36 grabs for 528 yards, with 25 receptions of 10-plus yards proving the downfield juice, though zero touchdowns on just four red-zone looks capped his 52.6 points (WR57). The leap over his rookie year (0.184 EPA, 1.47 yards per route) signals an ascending player.
The 2024 first-rounder (Pick 31, Florida) sits in a crowded 49ers passing tree, so his fantasy fate hinges on volume that has not yet arrived (under 10 percent target share both seasons) and on positive touchdown regression. The talent and draft capital point up, and an injury ahead of him would unlock WR2 upside. For now he is a high-ceiling WR4 and dynasty buy, a flex dart with breakout equity rather than a reliable starter.

Ricky Pearsall Fantasy Outlook FAQ
What is Ricky Pearsall's fantasy outlook for the rest of the 2026 season?
Ricky Pearsall projects as an efficient depth WR on the sideline for now for the rest of the 2026 season: waiver-wire material in 12-team PPR, 10-team PPR and half-PPR leagues. His efficiency (1.98 yards per route run, 31st of 142 WRs in 2025) supports that. His target volume (9.6% target share, 68th of 142 WRs in 2025) holds him back. See his live rank in Redraft Command.
What is Ricky Pearsall's rest-of-season fantasy ranking?
Ricky Pearsall is the WR72 in PPR points per game. That puts him in depth WR territory, waiver-wire material in 10-team PPR leagues.
What is Ricky Pearsall's fantasy football upside?
Ricky Pearsall's upside: his efficiency (1.98 yards per route run, 31st of 142 WRs in 2025) gives him a weekly floor to build on and the Commanders in Week 6 and the Falcons in Week 7 are top-10 matchups for WRs.
What could hurt Ricky Pearsall's fantasy value?
Ricky Pearsall's risks: he is on injured reserve, knee - pcl, his target volume (9.6% target share, 68th of 142 WRs in 2025) limits his scoring and the Broncos in Week 4 and the Seahawks in Week 5 are tough matchups. See his injury status and history.
How difficult is Ricky Pearsall's remaining fantasy schedule?
Difficult: of his next seven games, 2 come against a top-10 matchup for WRs and 3 against one of the stingiest defenses, by PPR points allowed to the position.
