Favorable matchup: Christian Kirk vs. Tennessee Titans

On balance, Christian Kirk’s first season in Jacksonville has been a smashing success. He could just use a big outing in Week 18 to remind everyone of that.

Despite sitting top-20 in receptions (78, tied for 19th), receiving yards (1,009, 16th) and touchdown catches (seven, tied for 14th), he’s had a few duds his last two times out.

The 26-year-old has only caught five of nine targets in his last two games for 43 yards and zero scores. He also has failed to find the end zone since the middle of November.

That could all change this week, though, as he gets a Titans defense that has been more generous than anyone to fantasy receivers.

While Kirk was relatively quiet in their first meeting (five receptions for 45 yards), this passing attack was as loud as ever with Trevor Lawrence throwing for 368 yards and three scores.

Expect Kirk to grab a bigger piece of the pie this time.

Projected stats: Seven receptions for 91 yards, one touchdown
