Footballguys view: So Kirk is going to play in Week 18. It's a must-win game for the Jaguars as they play against the Titans on Sunday. Having Kirk out there will be a boost for the offense, and it will help if QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) can play.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk (groin) was limited during practice Friday, Jan. 5, and is listed as questionable for Week 18.

Footballguys view: Kirk will be a game-time decision, but he is playing in an early time slot contest on Sunday, so you'll have plenty of hedge options if he is ruled out in a game the Jaguars need to claim the AFC South championship.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk out indefinitely    Tue Dec 5, 01:07 PM

Updating a previous report, Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk (groin) will likely require surgery to repair the groin injury he suffered on the team's first play of the game in Week 13 versus the Cincinnati Bengals.

Footballguys view: Without Kirk for an unknown amount of time, the Jaguars are going to turn to rookie WR Parker Washington. He's strong after the catch, and we saw on Monday night that the Penn State product has insane body control and the concentration to make big catches.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk catches three passes    Sun Nov 19, 04:29 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught three passes for 48 yards against the Tennessee Titans in Week 11. He was targeted six times during the game.

Footballguys view: Kirk is going to be a less central part of the pass offense when Zay Jones is out there and the downfield passing game comes to life. Kirk is more WR3/Flex than the WR1/WR2 he had been while Jones was out. Keep him in lineups next week at Houston, who he scored against in Week 3.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk goes over 100 yards    Sun Nov 12, 04:52 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught six passes for 104 yards against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10. He was targeted 10 times during the game but did lose a fumble.

Footballguys view: Kirk's lost fumble came close to the goal line in a play that symbolized the end of the Jaguars chances to hang with the 49ers today. He's the one constant in the Jaguars passing game and should be a strong WR2 play against the Titans next week.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk leads Jags in receiving    Fri Oct 20, 12:44 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught all six of his targeted passes for a team-high 90 yards and a touchdown in a victory over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday, Oct. 19.

Footballguys view: Kirk's late 44-yard touchdown proved to be the difference in the game. After a slow Week 1 that seemed to indicate that Kirk's weekly startability was on shaky ground. Since then he has been consistent with occasional spike weeks. Fears that Calvin Ridley's presence would hurt his value have been unfounded, and Kirk has ended up being the most valuable Jaguars receiver again.

  Jaguars | Six receptions for Christian Kirk    Sun Oct 8, 01:11 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught six passes for 78 yards against the Buffalo Bills in Week 5. He was targeted eight times during the game.

Footballguys view: After a slow start, Kirk has been a strong play for four straight weeks. Next week, he'll face the Colts, who held him to one catch for nine yards in Week 1, but with Zay Jones suffering another knee injury, the hot Kirk should be in lineups next week.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk finishes with 84 yards    Sun Oct 1, 12:27 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught eight passes for 84 yards against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 4. He was targeted 12 times during the game.

Footballguys view: Kirk was the de facto #1 receiver with Zay Jones sitting and Calvin Ridley covered well by former teammate AJ Terrell. He has heated up after a slow start and should be in lineups next week against the Bills whether Jones is active or not.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk reaches end zone    Sun Sep 24, 06:26 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught four passes for 54 yards and one touchdown against the Houston Texans in Week 3. He was targeted six times during the game.

Footballguys view: Kirk's touchdown saved what would have been a big letdown on a day that was supposed to be big because Zay Jones was sitting and Kirk was facing a vulnerable Texans pass defense. We'll probably leave Kirk in as a WR3/Flex next week, but check practice reports for Jones' status.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk hits triple digits    Sun Sep 17, 07:07 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk posted game highs with 11 receptions, 110 yards and 14 targets in Week 2 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Footballguys view: The Jaguars told us Kirk would play a larger role this week, and it paid to listen to them. He'll be a volatile play week-to-week, but next week against the Texans, Kirk should definitely be in lineups.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk likely to rebound in Week 2    Fri Sep 15, 12:13 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk managed only one catch - on three targets - for nine yards in Week 1 versus the Indianapolis Colts, but head coach Doug Pederson expects him to bounce back in a big way in Week 2 due partly to how often the Kansas City Chiefs utilize man coverage.'Christian thrives against man defense. He'll get his chances,' Pederson told 1010XL's Mia O'Brien.

Footballguys view: The Jaguars are basically telling us to leave Kirk in lineups as a WR3/Flex this week. If he doesn't get it done in what should be a high-scoring game against the Chiefs, it will be time to bench the slot receiver until he puts up numbers on our bench.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk held to one catch    Sun Sep 10, 06:15 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught one pass for nine yards against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1. He was targeted three times during the game.

Footballguys view: You can't feel good about starting Kirk until he puts up two good weeks in a row after this result. We knew Calvin Ridley's presence was going to hurt someone in this offense, and even if it changes from week to week, this is a clear demonstration of Kirk's weekly floor, and it came in a good matchup and good game from Trevor Lawrence. Kirk will take on the Chiefs next week.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk recorded seven receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown in the divisional-round playoff loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He saw a team-high 14 targets.

Footballguys view: Kirk did catch that touchdown, but there was a drop on a big play that would have been another touchdown and changed the course of the game. Overall, Kirk played well in his first season with the Jaguars.

Footballguys view: The Jaguars were in pass heavy come from behind mode for most of the game, so that was big for Kirk's fantasy prospects today. Kirk's ceiling games are more than good enough to justify suffering through his floor games.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught three passes for 40 yards against the Denver Broncos in Week 8. He was targeted seven times during the game.

Footballguys view: In the Travis Etienne-centered offense, there aren't going to be enough opportunities for Kirk to be an everyweek start. He's worth a WR3/Flex look because of the matchup with the Raiders next week, but this offense is settling at a balance that is not good for Kirk's fantasy prospects.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught seven passes for 96 yards against the New York Giants in Week 7. He was targeted 10 times during the game.

Footballguys view: Kirk caught a ball at the one-yard line on the last play of the game, but couldn't get across the goal line to give the team a chance to win. He has been a fantasy slump lately, but did enough to give us reason to start him as a WR3/Flex against the tough Broncos defense next week.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk catches TD pass    Sun Oct 16, 04:45 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught four passes for 24 yards and one touchdown against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 6. He was targeted five times during the game.

Footballguys view: After a hot start that made him look like a fantasy WR1, Kirk is on the fringe of starting fantasy wide receivers. He got a score on a play that was schemed to get the ball in his hands from close in, but otherwise wasn't a big factor in the spread it around Jaguars conservative offense. Kirk is just a WR3/Flex with a low ceiling against the Giants next week.

  Jaguars | Christian Kirk held to one catch    Sun Oct 9, 05:47 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk caught one pass for 11 yards against the Houston Texans in Week 5. He was targeted three times during the game.

Footballguys view: We could blame the elements for Kirk's bad stat line last week, but the weather was great in Jacksonville this week. Kirk is more WR3/Flex than the WR1 it looked like he was through three weeks. He'll face Kenny Moore and the Colts next week.
