49ers General Manager John Lynch said earlier this week that the team expects wide receiver Ricky Pearsall to play this season despite getting shot in the chest last Saturday, but it will be at least four games before that happens because Pearsall has been placed on the non-football injury list. On Thursday, head coach Kyle Shanahan provided a framework for Pearsall's first steps back to the field. Pearsall has been around the team facility in recent days, but Shanahan said that physical work won't be starting just yet. "He's coming to meetings, he's doing all that. He wants to go a while, a week or so, without trying to work up a sweat. After that, he'll start his rehab and progress to getting back," Shanahan said at a press conference. While the plan is to hold off on going full speed, Shanahan also said that Pearsall initially told him that he thought he could still play against the Jets on Monday so Pearsall doesn't sound like he'll be idle for much longer than doctors advise him to be.
