COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- When Christian Kirk arrived at Texas A&M as a true freshman, he did so with high expectations, high praise and plenty of opportunity.

So far, he has lived up to the expectations, showed himself worthy of the praise and taken full advantage of the opportunities he has had, catching more passes (163) and logging more all-purpose yardage (3,207) than any other player in the SEC over the last two seasons.

Now, Kirk looks to not only elevate his on-field play, but also his sideline and locker room presence.

"I think this year the main emphasis is becoming the best leader that I can be to lead this team," Kirk said after a recent practice.
