Christian Kirk

Christian Kirk joins the Texans after being acquired for a seventh-round pick, stepping into a starting slot role with Tank Dell likely sidelined for much of 2025. While Kirk has shown flashes of high-end WR2 upside in the past, his 2024 campaign was underwhelming before a collarbone injury ended his season early. He finished as the WR58 in points per game and was largely an afterthought in the red zone, with just a 19% target share and 11.8 expected PPG (WR38). Kirk offers real-life value as a reliable slot target and vertical threat alongside Nico Collins, but he'll face pressure from third-round rookie Jaylin Noe. Kirk also hasn't proven durable down the stretch in recent years. Draft cautiously - he's a fine late-round pick for floor, but the ceiling is limited without the TDs.
