San Francisco 49ers Release Update on Wide Receiver Ricky Pearsall
On Saturday, August 31, San Francisco’s rookie from the 2024 draft was unfortunately part of a very dangerous situation. An individual attempted to rob the NFL athlete in broad daylight and shots were fired. An ambulance was called and the football player under his own power; was able to walk to the vehicle in order to receive medical attention and treatment. However, now today on Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers release an update on their wide receiver Ricky Pearsall.
In case you missed what the franchise said yesterday. Below is their brief statement about the robbery incident; which also provided a few details as to what had taken place. They state:
“San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was the victim of an attempted robbery and shooting this afternoon.
He sustained a bullet wound to his chest and is in serious but stable condition. We ask that you please respect his privacy at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ricky and the entire Pearsall family.”
Since the moment this unnerving news first hit, many fans have been worried about the young player. Pearsall was just drafted back in April by the 49ers. Taken as the 31st pick during round one.
Prior to the shooting, Pearsall had been seen being an active and outstanding NFL player in the community. Being that he was on his way to a signing event. But had stopped inside a store to do a little shopping. But then tragedy struck.
The suspect attempted to steal Pearsall’s Rolex watch. A struggle ensued and shots fired. Ricky sustained a bullet wound to his chest, in which the bullet exited his back. Fortunately, the bullet missed all of his vital organs.
