Kendrick Bourne News: Stands to benefit with Pearsall out

Bourne is in line for more work Saturday versus the Seahawks due to Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) being inactive, Brianna Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

In Pearsall's absences during Weeks 5-10 and 16 this season, Bourne has been the biggest beneficiary among San Francisco's wide receivers, tallying a 26-422-0 line on 34 targets over those seven games. He'll have to vie with fellow WR Jauan Jennings, RB Christian McCaffrey and TE George Kittle (ankle) for looks from QB Brock Purdy, but the opportunity still knocks for Bourne.
