Curtis is clearly a talented young player, but at Rangers the pressure to deliver immediate results is relentless. Breaking into the starting XI regularly is extremely difficult, especially with experienced players ahead of him in key positions. Limited minutes off the bench or appearances in cup games may not be enough for his development at this crucial stage of his career.
A loan move to Kilmarnock would give Curtis something Rangers simply can’t guarantee right now: consistent first-team football. Playing week in, week out in the Scottish Premiership would test him physically and mentally, improve his decision-making, and help him adapt to the demands of senior football. It would also allow him to make mistakes, learn, and grow without the intense spotlight that comes with Ibrox.
By the end of the season, Rangers would have a more mature, battle-hardened player returning—one who is better prepared to compete for a place and contribute meaningfully. In the long run, that benefits both the player and the club.
