Pearsall Out, Samuel In | Wilmington News
Description
Ricky Pearsall’s season is over after tearing his right knee ligament, forcing surgery and sidelining him for the year — a cruel twist for a player who’s been injury-prone since day one. His rookie year was already rocky, with a shoulder injury and even a robbery attempt before kickoff, yet he still managed 31 catches, 400 yards, and 3 TDs. This offseason, he looked poised to be the team’s top receiver, but knee issues derailed that plan, costing him six games and leaving him unable to return at full strength. Now, the team’s loaded up: Deebo Samuel, Mike Evans, and De’Zhaun Stribling are all in, turning the receiving corps into a powerhouse. With Samuel back in the fold — bringing his elite yards-after-catch skills and rushing ability — the offense just got a major upgrade, even if it means Pearsall’s dream season is now a memory.
