British wide receiver Lewis Kirby signs with Berlin Thunder

The Berlin Thunder continue to shape their wide receiver group with the signing of British wide receiver Lewis Kirby. He joins the team as an E-import and will be an important target for quarterback Jakeb Sullivan.

Strong season in Germany

Kirby played last season for the New Yorker Lions Braunschweig, where he impressed with strong performances. He recorded 49 catches for 621 receiving yards and nine touchdowns, showing his ability to make big plays and contribute consistently to the offense.

Key piece in the receiving group

In Berlin, Kirby will line up alongside homegrown receiver Niklas Schumm and American import Jon Cole. Together, they form a balanced and dangerous wide receiver unit for the Thunder.

With his production and skill set, Kirby is expected to play an important role in the passing game as Berlin Thunder continue to build their offense for the upcoming season.
