Analyst Chris Simms discusses the competition between 2026 NFL Draft picks De’Zhaun Stribling and Ricky Pearsall for a receiver spot on the 49ers. While Stribling was drafted at No. 33 overall, many speculate about his role alongside established players like Mike Evans. Simms notes that the 49ers often utilize two receivers in their formations, making the battle for WR2 significant. The outcome will impact how often both players share the field in Coach Kyle Shanahan’s scheme.
