Rookie De'Zhaun Stribling is not practicing because of hamstring tightness. The 49ers said, via multiple reporters, that Stribling is not dealing with a strain.
In addition to losing Pearsall with a PCL injury, the 49ers have been practicing without veteran Christian Kirk. Kirk has missed several days with a calf injury.
Stribling was the first pick of the second round this year and his early work has earned rave reviews from quarterback Brock Purdy. A brief absence probably wouldn't alter plans for him to play a role right out of the gate, but any extended time off the field would work against an early impact for the rookie.
