49ers WR Ricky Pearsall’s Mom Shares Health Update Following Shooting

Ricky Pearsall’s life was spared during a recent attempted robbery, and his mother attributes this miraculous outcome to divine intervention.

Erin Pearsall, Ricky’s mother, provided an update on her son’s condition following the tragic incident on Saturday, where a 17-year-old suspect allegedly shot him in the chest while trying to steal his Rolex watch in broad daylight.

In a Facebook post, Erin confirmed that the bullet entered Ricky’s chest and exited his back, missing all vital organs. This fortunate circumstance has left the family feeling grateful for his survival.

Erin credited God entirely for her son’s miraculous escape from what could have been a fatal encounter, emphasizing that without some level of divine protection, the outcome would likely have been much worse.

Authorities responded to the scene around 3:30 PM on the day of the incident. Upon their arrival, they found both Ricky and the alleged shooter injured.

As the investigation progressed, it became clear that Ricky and his assailant had engaged in a struggle that resulted in the attacker accidentally injuring himself with his own weapon. The police subsequently arrested the suspect.

Footage from the scene shows Ricky walking toward an ambulance after the shooting, which is remarkable given that he had just sustained a gunshot wound to the chest.

This incident comes on the heels of Ricky being selected by the San Francisco 49ers as the 31st overall pick in the NFL Draft following an impressive senior season with the Florida Gators.

Though Ricky has faced challenges in recent weeks due to a shoulder injury, his family remains hopeful about his recovery.

With divine protection and support from his family, he is expected to make a full recovery from this unfortunate event.
