Kirk likely to start season on IR with calf strain.

Christian Kirk (calf strain) could begin the season on the Injured Reserve. Kirk has been out for about a month, with the injury occurring at the end of July. He signed as a free agent this past offseason for effectively the veteran minimum. The 49ers were counting on Kirk to be a key depth piece. Kirk has as much of a chance to play in Week 1 as Brandon Aiyuk, and the source indicates it's unlikely to see him for the first month of the season.
