Ricky Pearsall signed his rookie contract last week, a four-year deal worth approximately $12.54 million. The San Francisco 49ers selected the wide receiver as the No. 31 overall pick in this year's draft.
Two years ago, quarterback Brock Purdy was the last pick in the draft, No. 262 overall. His rookie deal was for four years, valued at about $3.74 million. Pearsall's signing bonus alone will be worth more than $2 million over the 49ers' franchise quarterback's entire rookie contract.

Pearsall's contract includes a signing bonus of $5.94 million, with his entire base salary of nearly $6.6 million over the length of the deal fully guaranteed. He will take up about 0.8% of the 49ers' salary cap space in 2024.
According to OverTheCap.com, the 49ers are currently listed at $31.47 million under the salary cap.
