The San Francisco 49ers' Ricky Pearsall will return to practice Monday, just over six weeks since he was shot in the chest during an attempted robbery.
It's been six weeks since Ricky Pearsall was shot in the chest during an attempted robbery, and he's about to take a big step forward in his eventual return to the field. Pearsall will practice for the first time since the incident Monday, when the San Francisco 49ers open Pearsall's 21-day window to return to game action. That is not to say Pearsall will play this year.
However, considering the timing of the decision and the improvements he has made, it does seem likely the Niners intend to bring him back. 'Health-wise and everything, he's totally good to go, but I really won't decide that stuff until we start watching him practice,' San Fran head coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday. 'But we're not going to rush it. If he's ready, he's ready. If he's not, we've got a few weeks.
