Kirk was a dynamic receiver and return specialist for the Aggies, starting all three seasons while picking up multiple All-SEC selections.
The 5-foot-11, 200-pound Arizona native amassed 2,976 yards and 26 touchdowns from scrimmage over the course of his career.
His 814 punt return yards since 2015 rank fourth among all FBS players, and his six punt return touchdowns during that time trail only Washington's Dante Pettis for the top spot.
