By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 10th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Since Week 3, Kirk has been heavily involved in the passing offense as the WR18 in fantasy points per game. Over this stretch, he has tied for the team lead with a 23% target share, led the squad with a 32.9% air-yard share and 30% first-read share, and produced 2.48 YPRR. Chicago has the eighth-highest single-high rate this season (58.7%). Since Week 3, Kirk is second on the team in target share (21.5%), YPRR (1.76), and first-read share (26.9%) against single-high. Temper expectations for the Jaguars' talented slot receiver this week. Chicago has allowed the eighth-fewest PPR points per target to slot receivers. Kirk will run about 82% of his routes against Kyler Gordon (65% catch rate and 89.4 passer rating).
