It's easy for Christian Kirk to remember his preseason debut. It doesn't help that he's constantly reminded of it. It comes up in film sessions and in playful comments from teammates.
Last year as a rookie, Kirk looked ready to take a punt return back to the house in the preseason opener for the Cardinals. It was only about a minute into the game, and the Arizona native seems ready to dazzle the home crowd. However, he tripped up, wiping out around the Chargers' 45-yard line and wiping out the chance to have a storybook debut. Still, it was good for a 38-yard return and a few lessons on top of that.
