Huddle Up: With his speed and explosiveness, Kirk could be one of the main beneficiaries of Kingsbury's offensive-minded approach and the addition of quarterback Kyler Murray. He's worth a look as a WR4, and he has the potential to emerge as a fantasy starter.

Huddle Up: Kirk has flashed his explosiveness, albeit in sporadically, and finding more ways to put the ball in his hands is only going to increase his chances of producing big plays. Head coach Kliff Kingsbury's offense could be just what the doctor ordered to unleash Kirk's full potential, and he's a great target in the later rounds of drafts.

Huddle Up: Kirk broke his foot in early December but was starting to emerge as a playmaker for the woeful Cardinals. The new regime should suit him well, however, as the Texas A&M product was one of the draft's best run-after-catch receivers a year ago, and head coach Kliff Kingsbury's offense should allow for plenty of those opportunities. Kirk is a player fantasy owners should keep in mind as a deep sleeper in 2019.

Huddle Up: Kirk performed well overall as a rookie despite Arizona's disappointing year. He and Josh Rosen showed glimpses of a future dynamic duo. Even with Larry Fitzgerald returning, Kirk possesses WR3 upside as Arizona's No. 2 wide receiver.

Huddle Up: Kirk showed promise as a rookie before the injury, and he should enter 2019 as the No. 2 option in the passing game across from Larry Fitzgerald. His success will be somewhat tied to the development of quarterback Josh Rosen, but Kirk will have WR3 potential.
-

Huddle Up: Kirk had a solid rookie season and finished with 43 receptions, 590 yards and three touchdowns. He should build a stronger chemistry with Josh Rosen next season and can be a No. 3 or No. 4 receiver for owners next season.

Huddle Up: Kirk's absence equates to more looks for Larry Fitzgerald and Ricky Seals-Jones, at least in an ideal world. Fitz is the primary beneficiary, though, and he and David Johnson are the only Cardinals worth starting going forward.

Huddle Up: Kirk has shown some signs of fantasy usefulness even with some erratic play from the quarterback position. He has three or more grabs in 10 of his past 11 games to emerge as a decent WR4 in PPR formats. Kirk is also a nice player for those in dynasty fantasy formats.

Huddle Up: Kirk is having a decent rookie season, especially considering the state of the Arizona offense overall. He's a WR4 option for now, but he has some serious long-term appeal in dynasty formats.
-

Huddle Up: Kirk's big-play ability is undeniable, but until he starts to show some consistent production, he will remain a risky flex play.
-
Posted: 10/18/2018 9:51pm ET
Huddle Up: This was a step back for Kirk after topping 75 yards in three of his previous four games, but the offense as a whole sputtered, and Kirk's 57 yards were 17 more than anyone else. While you'll need to pick your spots with Kirk, he's definitely worth owning.
-

Huddle Up: Kirk has been playing well lately with at least 77 yards in three of the last four games. He appears to be one of the main options in the passing game for the Cardinals and could be a No. 3 receiver or flex option for owners.
-
Posted: 9/23/2018 11:12pm ET
Huddle Up: Kirk entered the weekend with a total of five receptions for 31 yards through two games, so this was a performance few could have seen coming. With Josh Rosen likely taking over for Sam Bradford as the starter moving forward, it's possible Kirk could find his way into fantasy relevancy, although he is at his best in the slot - and that is an area manned most of the time by Larry Fitzgerald. Kirk figures to be a popular waiver-wire add this week, but owners should make him prove he can sustain this first.

Huddle Up: It is not a good sign that Kirk was added to the injury report Thursday. He has been limited to only 31 yards over the first two games of the season and should be avoided even if he plays.
-
Posted: 9/16/2018 10:28pm ET
Huddle Up: While certainly modest, it's at least a step in the right direction for Kirk, who should have plenty of chances for expanded playing time on a club largely bereft of playmakers. At this stage, however, Kirk is only worth owning in deep standard formats and dynasty leagues.
-

Huddle Up: Kirk doesn't have a clear path to a lot of playing time early on, but he's not a bad late-round flier in redraft leagues.
-
Posted: 7/13/2018 9:11pm ET
Huddle Up: Kirk could be the No. 2 option in the passing game behind Larry Fitzgerald as soon as this year. He's worth adding as a WR5 in redraft leagues, and he is a potential first-round pick in rookie drafts.
