Christian Kirk Primed For Bigger Game In Week 2?

Christian Kirk Primed For Bigger Game In Week 2?

one year ago

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said wide receiver Christian Kirk's poor performance in the Week 1 win over the Indianapolis Colts -- one catch for nine yards -- was a byproduct of the Colts' zone defense. "Christian thrives against man defense... he'll get his chances [this weekend vs. #Chiefs]," Pederson said. In two games against the Chiefs last year, Kirk caught 16 passes for 157 yards and three touchdowns, but that was also without Calvin Ridley, who is now Jacksonville's No. 1 receiver. Fantasy managers should be able to expect more production this Sunday than what we saw in Week 1, but regression is expected overall for Kirk in 2023. Consider him a WR3/flex with some more upside this week in what could be a shootout.
