  • Calf injury wasn't serious

    Kirkwood (calf) returned to workouts within days of the Saints' season-ending playoff loss to the Rams, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Kirkwood showed promise as a rookie in 2018, catching 13 passes for 209 yards and two scores. Four of those receptions were for more than 20 yards, and he added another touchdown in the Saints' divisional-round victory over Philadelphia. The undrafted Temple product unfortunately strained his calf during that game against the Eagles, though, and he was consequently unable to practice all week ahead of the NFC Championship Game against Los Angeles. However, Kirkwood's quick return to workouts…read more

  • Won't suit up Sunday

    Kirkwood (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams.

    Analysis: Kirkwood was unable to practice all week due to a calf injury, which will sideline him for the Saints' biggest outing of the season to date. With the undrafted rookie out of commission, the offense will rely on Ted Ginn, Tre'Quan Smith, Tommylee Lewis and perhaps even Austin Carr to round out the receiving corps behind top option Michael Thomas.

  • Doesn't practice Thursday

    Kirkwood (calf) was held out of practice Thursday, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: In the second half of the campaign, Kirkwood has worked his way into the wideout rotation, culminating with a season-high 69 percent of the offensive snaps during the Saints' divisional-round win against the Eagles. The team's training staff may be exercising caution with the undrafted rookie, but his listing on Friday's injury report will be interesting to note as New Orleans prepares to host the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.

  • Tending to calf injury

    Kirkwood was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice report due to a calf injury, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Kirkwood has been a regular presence in the Saints offense since Week 10, but aside from three visits to the end zone across nine contests, he hasn't made much of an impact in the box score. The undrafted rookie has two more chances to prove the health of his calf prior to Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Rams.

  • Emerges as key piece

    Kirkwood had 13 catches on 21 targets for 209 yards and two touchdowns in eight games in 2018.

    Analysis: An undrafted free agent from Temple, Kirkwood impressed the Saints coaching staff during training camp but was unable to crack the team's active roster. The rookie receiver spent the first half of the season on the Saints' practice squad, but upon being first activated in Week 10, Kirkwood immediately took over as the team's primary slot receiver. While his final statistics were nothing special, Kirkwood has good size at 6-foot-3 and the trust of Drew Brees and the Saints coaches, as he…read more

  • Commands four targets

    Kirkwood hauled in two of his four targets to total 35 yards in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Despite the return of Ted Ginn, Kirkwood continued to see his snap total climb as he took the field on a season-best 38 offensive plays. That led to four targets, his highest mark since Week 11 -- his second NFL game. With the Saints clinching the number one seed in the NFC, playmakers such as Michael Thomas may see a limited role in Week 17 against the Panthers, opening up the possibility of an increased target share for Kirkwood.

  • Career-high snap count in win

    Kirkwood recorded two receptions for 40 yards in Monday's 12-9 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: A week after playing his fewest offensive snaps (22) since making his NFL debut in Week 10, Kirwood tied a career high with 34 snaps in a chippy Monday night affair. Still, the rookie receiver continued to see limited involvement in the passing game and has yet to top 45 yards in any of his six appearances to date. Kirkwood is an interesting player in deeper dynasty leagues, but he probably doesn't warrant ownership in most redraft formats.

  • Held in check in Tampa

    Kirkwood caught two passes for 21 yards in Sunday's win against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: The rookie receiver was targeted twice, as Kirkwood played just 22 of the team's 64 offensive snaps -- his fewest since being first activated in Week 10. While Kirkwood has the leg up in the slot-receiver competition, he is still splitting time with Austin Carr (14 snaps) and Tommylee Lewis (13 snaps), limiting his upside. As a result, Kirkwood may be worth a flyer in deeper dynasty leagues, or even daily formats, but he's not a recommended play in most formats.

  • Scores first career touchdown

    Kirkwood caught one pass for a five-yard touchdown in Thursday's win over the Falcons.

    Analysis: Kirkwood caught only one of his three targets but it was a memorable one for the undrafted free agent, who scored his first career touchdown. While he was otherwise quiet in the box score, Kirkwood played 30 of the Saints' 57 offensive snaps on Thanksgiving Day, as the slot receiver continues to earn significant playing time. Brandon Marshall was inactive again, and it remains to be seen if the veteran will siphon playing time from the rookie once he gets up to speed. In the meantime, however,…read more

  • Three catches in second game

    Kirkwood caught three of five targets for 33 yards in Sunday's win against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Kirkwood, active for just the second time all season, split time out of the slot with second-year pro Austin Carr. In both his games, however, Kirkwood has played well, as the undrafted rookie from Temple had two catches for 45 yards in his NFL debut in Week 10 against the Bengals. While the Saints signed free-agent receiver Brandon Marshall last week, if Kirkwood continues to impress, the staff could decide it's in the team's best interest to play the rookie over the seasoned veteran. As a…read more

  • Two catches in NFL debut

    Kirkwood caught both of his targets for 45 yards in Sunday's win against the Bengals.

    Analysis: Making his NFL debut after being promoted from the practice squad, Kirkwood played 34 of the Saints' 75 offensive snaps. The rookie's promotion was no coincidence, as the Saints placed both Cameron Meredith (knee) and Dez Bryant (Achilles) on injured reserve earlier in the week. An undrafted rookie out of Temple, Kirkwood has good size at 6-foot-3 and impressed throughout training camp. While he likely will split playing time with Austin Carr, Kirkwood may be worth a flier in deeper leagues, as…read more

  • Promoted to active roster

    Kirkwood was activated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

    Analysis: Kirkwood originally signed with New Orleans in April. This news comes on the heels of the injury Dez Bryant (Achilles) sustained at practice Friday, but it seems that this move was meant to happen before then.
