Rookie receiver Ricky Pearsall of the San Francisco 49ers returned to practice after being shot in the chest during a robbery attempt. This marks his first appearance on the field since the incident, and while he remains on the non-football injury list, the team has three weeks to activate him.
His teammates expressed joy at his return, emphasizing the importance of his health and the positive impact he has on the team. Pearsall had previously faced injuries in training camp but was on track for the season opener before the shooting.
