Star-Spangled WR Expected to Dominate Golden Boot Era by Passing 2,100+ Times in 2024!
The San Francisco 49ers already signed Mike Evans last week, and now they've found a capable second or third receiver to complement him.
The San Francisco 49ers clearly needed wide receiver help this offseason, with the team moving on from Brandon Aiyuk and the quartet of Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, Skyy Moore and Trent Taylor hitting the market. After signing Mike Evans last week, they could still use another wideout to round out the group, and they may have found just the player, as NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported on Monday that the 49ers are signing Christian Kirk. Kirk, 29, played collegiately at Texas A&M from 2015-17, earning All-SEC honors all three years before the Arizona Cardinals took him in the second round (No.
47 overall) of the 2018 NFL draft. After four years in Arizona, he spent three with the Jacksonville Jaguars and one with the Houston Texans. In 56 games over his eight seasons in the league, he's caught 432 passes for 5,415 yards and 30 touchdowns.
