Ricky Pearsall Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

If I were to tell you that there's a wide receiver entering his second season in one of the best offenses in the NFL, that's a former first-round NFL draft pick who flashed in the final weeks of his rookie season, that's dirt cheap in fantasy football drafts...you'd tell me I was insane. Well, I present to you Ricky Pearsall. Pearsall's rookie season was derailed early by camp injuries and then off-the-field circumstances that were out of his control. All of these factors delayed Pearsall flashing his immense talent, but eventually, the cream rose to the top. In the final two weeks of the regular season, Pearsall finished as the WR7 and WR14 in weekly scoring while seeing a 21.7% target share and 30.4% first-read share and producing 2.84 yards per route run (per Fantasy Points Data). Brandon Aiyuk is coming off a torn ACL in 2025, and Deebo Samuel is gone. If Pearsall can establish himself as the 1B in this passing attack behind George Kittle, he'll crush his ADP and help plenty of Fantasy GMs to titles in 2025.
