Ricky Pearsall must prove Week 1 was no fluke when 49ers face Saints

Aside from pulling off a victory, there aren't too many positives from the San Francisco 49ers' 17-13 Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks.

After all, the game cost the Niners more than just a few dings and scrapes on the injury report.

Most notably, of course, is tight end George Kittle landing on injured reserve with a non-contact hamstring injury, sidelining him for at least the next four weeks, including Week 2's road showdown against the 0-1 New Orleans Saints.

While his shoulder injury turned out to be nowhere as serious, wide receiver Jauan Jennings' availability for Sunday's bout remains up in the air, too.
