It’s official: Christian Kirk is an NFL wide receiver. The former Texas A&M football star signed his rookie contract with the Arizona Cardinals, who took him with the 47th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
It has been a tumultuous week for Kirk. Reports surfaced of an arrest at the Waste Management Phoenix Open back in February that didn’t look good for him. Kirk was a model student while in College Station and had not been in any kind of trouble previously.
The Cardinals knew this, and they also looked into the situation and knew about it before the draft.
