Matt Barrows of The Athletic also reports that cornerback Isaac Yiadom has returned to practice. He has been dealing with an ankle injury.
Over the weekend, head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed that Pearsall would return to practice on Monday. Pearsall missed much of training camp and the entire preseason due to a shoulder subluxation, which is a partial dislocation.
Shanahan confirmed after Friday's preseason finale against the Las Vegas Raiders that the injury initially occurred during Pearsall's college career and was recently re-aggravated.
"I think his junior year," Shanahan shared. "About 50% of the people coming out of college do that. That really wasn't the problem. He did it in OTAs for the first time with us, and when you do that, it's tender. And then he redid it here a couple weeks ago, and it makes it tender, so you want to give him time to come back from it."
Pearsall's return to practice bodes well for his chances of contributing when the 49ers host the New York Jets at Levi's Stadium on Monday, September 9, to start their regular season.
