The second-round pick has already been thrown into the mix with the veterans at practice as he attempts to carve out a substantial role as a rookie.

"I think every practice I'm getting better," Kirk said. "I can't expect myself to go out there and be perfect, even though that's what I want. There have been dropped passes, missed assignments, but that just comes with the process of being a rookie. I'm learning a lot from (the veterans). I feel like every day I'm getting better, and I feel like after Week Two of OTAs, I had my best practice today."
