PCL swelling recurrence threatens to sideline Pearsall for entire 2026 season.

PCL knee swelling has returned during early training camp after the 49ers hoped it would heal on its own during the offseason. Matt Maiocco reports the latest "doesn't look good"; swelling became severe enough on the second day of training camp that the team had to back him off and seek medical advice. If surgery is required, Pearsall will miss the entire 2026 season. The source states it is "reasonable, rational, logical, for the 49ers to not expect Ricky Pearsall to make any contribution in 2026."
