    49ers Training Camp Day 3: Pearsall injury concern, Shanahan improving

    The 49ers have had their fair share of training camp injuries over the years. One player uniquely familiar with those setbacks, Ricky Pearsall, seems to have been bitten by the injury bug again in camp.

With Christian Kirk still sidelined because of a calf injury, the door is ajar for a wideout lower on the depth chart to make a significant contribution. On this episode of "49ers Talk," Matt Maiocco and Jennifer Lee Chan discuss the impact of Pearsall's absence and if rookie De'Zhaun Stribling is ready to fill the void. Later, Matt and Jennifer shed light on coach Kyle Shanahan's recovery from concussion symptoms sustained during his accident. -- (1:00) Ricky Pearsall misses practice due to swelling in right knee (3:00) There is legitimate concern that Pearsall’s injury could require surgery (7:00) Are the 49ers already looking for WR replacements, including Deebo Samuel?
