49ers WR Ricky Pearsall, Chiefs WR JuJu Smith-Schuster are both active

49ers rookie receiver Ricky Pearsall makes his NFL debut today against the Chiefs.

The team activated Pearsall from the reserve/non-football injury list on Saturday.

The 49ers first-round pick was shot in the chest during an attempted robbery on August 31. This week he returned to training.

Anders Carlson, who signed with the practice squad this week, will kick off today. Matthew Wright (shoulder/back) went on injured reserve on Saturday and Jake Moody (right ankle) is on the inactive list.

The 49ers’ other inactives are quarterback Josh Dobbs, wide receiver Jauan Jennings (hip), cornerback Darrell Luter Jr. (pelvis), offensive lineman Ben Batch, tight end Brayden Willis and linebacker Jalen Graham.

The Chiefs’ inactives are offensive tackle Ethan Driskell, offensive lineman CJ Hanson, defensive tackle Marlon Tuipulotu, defensive end Mike Danna (chest) and running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

Chiefs wide receiver Juju Smith-Schuster was an addition to the practice report Thursday with a hamstring problem that Andy Reid called a “spasm.” The Chiefs listed him as doubtful, but he will play.
