Christian Kirk became one of Brock Purdy’s top offensive targets on Monday when the now former Texans receiver signed a one-year deal with the 49ers.
The quarterback and receiver are both Arizona natives and are just a few years apart in age. Kirk is someone Purdy has admired on the field for quite some time, even dating back to a decade ago. Kirk played receiver for Saguaro High School in Scottsdale, Ari., graduating in 2015. Purdy played about 30 minutes away from Kirk at Perry High School in Gilbert, Ari., graduating in 2018.
