Trends

"Kirk was traded to Houston after spending his first seven NFL seasons in Arizona and Jacksonville. He peaked in 2022 when he posted career-high marks across the board and finished 18th among WRs in fantasy PPG, but that marks his only career top-30 season. Last season, he missed nine games and, while he did have a few solid outings (12-plus points three weeks in a row), he averaged a career-low 8.9 PPG on the season. With Tank Dell (knee) in doubt for 2025, Kirk will compete with rookies Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel for No. 2 receiver duties opposite Nico Collins, and he figures to work as the team's primary slot receiver. There's not much upside here (he's cleared six TDs once in his career), so Kirk should be viewed as no more than a late-round pick."

"Kirk no longer looks hindered by the broken collarbone that ended his 2024 season in Jacksonville after just eight games. The Texans traded for Kirk in early March, then selected two rookies out of Iowa State -- Jayden Higgins (second round) and Jaylin Noel (third round) -- in the 2025 NFL Draft. Even with Tank Dell (knee) nursing a serious enough injury that he could miss most, or all, of the upcoming season, Higgins and Noel represent notable competition for targets behind No. 1 wideout Nico Collins. At 6-foot-4, 212 pounds with 4.47 speed, Higgins is a physical clone of Collins capable of joining him on the boundary, while Noel's smaller frame and 4.39 speed seemingly positions him to begin as a deep threat. That leaves Kirk with a clear path to dominate slot reps, with the catch being that Noel could eventually compete for such snaps, and Houston's other wideouts could emerge as higher-priority targets for C.J. Stroud."
