Overview
- Pearsall injured his ankle on the first play, returned after treatment, then later left with a knee issue believed to be a recurrence of his prior PCL problem pending Monday imaging.
- He logged six receptions for a team-high 96 yards in a 37-24 victory over the Titans, marking his best output since returning in Week 11.
- Kyle Shanahan said the knee most likely was an irritation of the existing PCL and noted Pearsall played through the ankle all game, while the receiver said he plans to manage it once imaging confirms the diagnosis.
- Left guard Spencer Burford will be evaluated for a potential high-ankle sprain after returning to finish the game, according to Shanahan.
- Jordan Elliott was a late scratch with a knee issue, Chase Lucas returned from a shoulder stinger, Christian McCaffrey played through a minor back concern, and the win moved San Francisco to 10-4 with a fourth straight victory.
