Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Christian Kirk will miss the rest of the season with a broken foot, Cardinals coach Steve Wilks announced Monday.
Kirk suffered the injury in the Cardinals' win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. He had three catches for 54 yards and one carry for 23 yards in the game.
A Scottsdale native, Kirk starred at Saguaro High School and Texas A&M before being selected by the Cardinals in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He had 43 catches for 590 yards and three touchdowns this season, and he also served as the Cardinals' primary punt returner. He caught the game-winning touchdown in the Cards' victory over the San Francisco 49ers in October.
