If there was one move the Jacksonville Jaguars were heavily criticized for this offseason, it was the decision to sign Christian Kirk to a starter-level contract that somewhat shook up the receiver market. With the team in need of a receiver this offseason, they signed Kirk to a four-year deal worth $72 million deal that guarantees $37 million.
As a result, a lot of eyes are now on the young receiver to live up to one of the most talked-about contracts of the offseason. Nolan Murt of The 33rd Team believes he will meet those expectations and recently listed him among four players who he believes will take the next step in 2022.
Here is what Murt had to say about the Jags’ signing of Kirk as he believes the team’s strategy to spend like they did this offseason has some merit.
