• Saints' Keith Kirkwood: Makes minor impact again in 2023

  01/16/2024 • By RotoWire

  Kirkwood caught five of nine targets for 37 yards and one touchdown across 13 games during the 2023 regular season. Kirkwood played in a career-high 13 games, and his 225 offensive snaps tied his previous career high from his 2018 rookie campaign. The 30-year-old also caught a touchdown for the first time since 2018; but, he still failed to log more than five receptions for the fifth year in a row, totaling just 11 catches in 23 games during this span. Kirkwood signed a one-year, $1.01 million contract with the Saints in February of 2023, and he was released before re-signing with the team shortly thereafter in mid-November. He should be set to hit free agency this coming offseason.

• Saints' Keith Kirkwood: Logs touchdown in big win

  12/18/2023 • By RotoWire

  Kirkwood hauled in his only target for seven yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 24-6 win versus the Giants. Derek Carr found Kirkwood open over the middle of the end zone for his first of three passing touchdowns Sunday. The 28-year-old wideout has seen consistent playing time in a reserve role over the past four weeks while Michael Thomas (knee) has been on IR. However, Kirkwood has now logged just three receptions over this span, and his touchdown catch Sunday marked his first reception since the Week 12 loss to Atlanta. He also totaled just one target despite the absence of No. 1 wideout Chris Olave (ankle), who was ruled inactive Week 15. Kirkwood also logged fewer targets than rookie wideout A.T. Perry (five), consistent starter Rashid Shaheed (four) and Lynn Bowden (two). Expect Kirkwood to continue playing a minimal role Week 16 versus the Rams.
