If “all options are being explored,” that would mean surgery is potentially on the table. Either way, it doesn’t seem likely he will be a full contributor this season.

The 49ers signed Mike Evans and Christian Kirk in the offseason so on paper they are better at WR position than they were last year.

Stribling was the first overall pick and looks good so far. We will see. But he figures to be a Z receiver to replace Jennings . Evans will be the X. Pearsall was the Y which would be filled by Kirk. But Kirk is also out with an injury right now haha 🤣. So this role would be Demarcus Robinson

And let's be honest. Evans has not exactly been the picture of health the last few seasons either.

No , questionable pick up for sure. Great if he stays healthy... big if. Stribling flgures to slide in to the X role with development. Hopefully he doesn't have to be forced into that role early. Deebo Samuel is still a free agent as well so we will see if there is mutual interest. He filled the Z role as well if Pearsall has surgery

I heard he skipped out on surgery his PCL opting instead for a holistic approach. This guy could've been great he actually balled out for them week one last year. Huge loss. Now they have to rely on an old bald dude and their rookie receiver Stribling. Ouch

Kirk is already injured, got hurt in the first practice, and they are saying he will likely miss the start of the season. Their rookie, Stribling, is looking good in practice, but that leaves them with only two quality receivers. Tonges should get more work (and Kittle if/when he returns to form). Of course it will mean more of a workload for CMC. Remember, he was not only their premier back last year, he also led the team in receptions and receiving yards.

ETA: Maybe should have read the rest of the thread before responding, so most of this has already been pointed out, and yes Evans' health is suspect as well. It's ok they have CMC and Tonges to rely on. What could go wrong?
