Houston Texans WR Christian Kirk "has been everything we could ask for (so far this offseason)," according to head coach DeMeco Ryans. Teammate Nico Collins referred to Kirk as a "slot magician."
"You talk about a guy who is dedicated to getting better. He has honed in on his craft and he's leading our young guys. He's a hard worker, he shows up every day with the right attitude working hard and showing guys how it's done," Ryans said.
Huddle Up: Kirk has one year left on the four-year contract he signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars in March of 2022. It seems likely that is how long the 28-year-old will stay in Houston after the team drafted Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel in the second and third round, respectively, in April's draft. With that said, it is not out of the question that Kirk plays so well in 2025 that the Texans bring him back for another year as insurance for Higgins and/or Noel.

Houston Texans WR Christian Kirk restructured his contract Friday, March 14, to create $12 million of salary cap space.
Huddle Up: Kirk struggled with a 27-379-1 line in eight games last season and is now two years removed from his 1,000-yard breakout campaign. He's still just 28 and in a better situation. He'll be a WR4 with WR3 potential.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk will be traded to the Houston Texans in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft choice, according to sources.
Huddle Up: The Jaguars were going to release Kirk this offseason, so they receive a draft pick in the trade. Brian Thomas Jr. is the only reliable Jaguars receiver for fantasy players at this point, but they could add others this offseason.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk will be acquired by the Houston Texans in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft choice, according to sources.
Huddle Up: The Texans were expected to look to add at receiver this season, so Kirk should have a solid role in the passing game next season especially if Tank Dell is not able to play early in the season. He can be at least a No. 4 receiver in most fantasy leagues.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk is expected to be released, according to sources Wednesday, March 5.
Huddle Up: Kirk missed the final nine games of the 2024 season due to a collarbone injury, but he struggled to provide much value before that. The 28-year-old had only one finish inside the top-24 before his injury, but he can still provide some slot depth for a needy team. For fantasy purposes, though, Kirk is best viewed as a WR4 option with a capped ceiling.

Pittsburgh Steelers WR George Pickens is not expected to be available via trade, according to sources, and the organization views any additions at the position as complementary to him. It is believed the Steelers will not add any wide receiver salaries without settling the quarterback position first, but addressing the position will be a top priority. Pittsburgh could pursue Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton via trade if contract talks with Denver break down, sources said. Last year, the Steelers showed interest in Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk and WR Darius Slayton (Giants) at the trade deadline, and both could be in play again provided Kirk is released, in the opinion of PennLive's Nick Farabaugh.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk's odds of being cut are "pretty high," according to Dan Graziano of ESPN.com, but Graziano also believes that Kirk's contract "is reasonable enough" for the Jaguars to trade the receiver.

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk (collarbone) was part of trade conversations with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and until he broke his collarbone in Week 8, there was a reasonable chance that Kirk was going to end up with the Steelers, according to league sources.
