Christian KirkWRSF

Offseason free agent acquisition sustained a calf strain during practice. Kirk has a concerning injury history: hamstring injuries caused him to miss the first couple of games of the 2025 season before re-aggravating, and with Jacksonville in 2024 he dealt with groin and core muscle injuries. He is on a one-year deal worth $2.78 million in dead cap if released. The source notes 'you cannot help the club from the tub,' suggesting roster status is uncertain if the injury requires extended recovery.
