When I tell y’all Zay Jones is the Jaguars designated X Receiver, I ain’t kidding.

Christian Kirk, Marvin Jones, Laviska Shenault, Laquon Treadwell

O'Brien went on to say between OTAs and the past two days: when Trevor Lawrence uncorks a pass, it’s always to Jones. Jones gained some momentum over the last seven games of 2021, when he hauled in 38 passes for 369 yards during that span for the Raiders. He's ranked just 103 on our WR list.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed WR Christian Kirk.

Kirk's addition probably signals the end of D.J. Chark's time in Jacksonville. Kirk will be targeted plenty by Trevor Lawrence and should be in the top 30-35 of receivers majority of weeks.

Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (knee) is expected to miss the rest of the regular season. He sprained his knee Week 14 and was expected to get a second opinion Wednesday.

Tough loss for the Cardinals and even tougher for Hopkins now that he is in a stable offense. All pass catchers get a boost without Hopkins.

Cardinals HC Kliff Kingsbury told reporters Friday that QB Kyler Murray (ankle) and WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) are game-time decisions Week 13 at Chicago.

With the best record in the NFC, Arizona has wiggle room to be extra cautious with these two. Thankfully, Cardinals-Bears is an early Sunday game so adjustments can be made prior to kick-off.

Cardinals WRs DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) and Rondale Moore (neck/concussion) are game-time decisions for Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers.

Hopkins' absence did not matter Week 9, but two straight weeks without him is playing with fire. Moore's injury is tough to predict so plan on playing another receiver.

DeAndre Hopkins is day-to-day with a hamstring injury, Kliff Kignsbury said.

A.J. Green is still in the COVID protocol and has to test out of that in order to play.

Hopkins missed Week 9 along with Kyler Murray but the Cards still came away with a division win over the 49ers. We may have to go through the same thing this week as far as Hopkins' status and the uncertainty goes. The Cards host the Panthers in a later afternoon game in Week 10.

Cardinals WR A.J. Green has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list after a positive test.

Green has been nothing short of fantastic and if he is unvaccinated, would be a huge loss ahead of Week 9's divisional matchup with the 49ers.

Through two games, 69 of Christian Kirk's 77 snaps have been from the slot, per Pro Football Focus. He leads the team in yards per catch with 16.9, which is seventh-highest in the NFL among receivers with at least eight catches.

Since the Cardinals signed free agent wide receiver A.J. Green this offseason to line up outside, the plan was the move Kirk inside, where he played in college at Texas A&M. He said he is questioning himself less and more focused on the task in front of him. Rookie Moore also plays on the inside and had a standout game in Week 2 while Kirk is in the final year of his rookie contract, the story said.

Cardinals are not optimistic that WR Larry Fitzgerald, listed as questionable with a groin injury, will be able to play vs the Rams, per source. With Christian Kirk out, Fitzgerald could try to surprise Arizona. But the team was not counting on having him available.

Fire up DeAndre Hopkins this week, as he could see a lot of targets if the Rams make this a game. KeeSean Johnson and Andy Isabella will likely start, but Arizona doesn't seem to like to use either one enough for fantasy purposes.

Cardinals placed WR Christian Kirk on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

The Cardinals will be without Christian Kirk for a win-or-go-home contest in Week 17 against the Rams. Second-year wideouts Andy Isabella and KeeSean Johnson should see a bump in usage, with Larry Fitzgerald still a game-time decision.
