Pearsall saw fewer targets than Jennings in Week 2. With Kittle out, Pearsall could see a surge if Jennings is hampered, making him a viable pivot in deeper leagues or as a contrarian DFS option.

<p>Ricky Pearsall produced 4 catches for 108 yards last week and should see a larger role as SF's lead receiver with Kittle out</p><p>He has the ability to get open against man coverage and needs to be a consistent target for Jones throughout the game.</p>

Pearsall followed Week 1 with a 4-108 line on seven targets, showing target security. With Brock Purdy out, Mac Jones steps in, but Pearsall’s path to double-digit targets looks favorable as Kittle deals with IR and Jennings injures. Pearsall’s role could solidify as SF’s clear WR1 in a high-volume offense.

Pearsall’s Week 1 burst for 108 yards makes him an intriguing Week 2 depth option for SF after a shutout vs. Seattle. The Week 2 prop hints at a breakout potential or a game plan leaning toward bigger plays, especially if matchup dynamics line up similarly to Week 1.

Pearsall emerges as a big-play option on the perimeter, leveraging Purdy’s quick release to hit timing windows down the hash and seam routes. His involvement tends to grow with Purdy’s comfort level and with the offense’s need for ready-made plays off play-action.
