49ers Sign Christian Kirk to One-Year Deal
The San Francisco 49ers signed free-agent veteran wide receiver Christian Kirk to a one-year deal worth $6 million on Monday, according to Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Kirk was a disappointment with 28 catches on 52 targets for 239 yards and one touchdown in his 13 regular-season games (three starts) in 2025 in his only season with the Houston Texans. However, he did close out the year on a strong note in two playoff games, catching 10 passes for 164 yards and two touchdowns. Kirk is the latest addition to the Niners' WR room after the team signed future Hall of Fame pass-catcher Mike Evans in free agency last week. The additions of Evans and Kirk likely mean that Jauan Jennings won't be back in the Bay Area in 2026. Barring any additional injuries at the position in San Fran, Kirk figures to be the No. 3 behind Evans and Ricky Pearsall going into next season, his ninth in the NFL. After two straight rough seasons for Kirk, his fantasy value is way down, but landing in Kyle Shanahan's offense could make him a deep-league sleeper in PPR formats.
