Nelson Agholor Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor will likely be thrust into an every-down role in Week 3. With top wide receivers DeSean Jackson (groin) and Alshon Jeffery (calf) unlikely to suit up, Agholor will be wide receiver atop the depth chart. He spent the second half in Week 2 in the role, and despite some decent stats (107 yards and a touchdown), he also showed why he's so far behind Jackson and Jeffery when everyone is healthy. Agholor made some totally inexcusable drops when wide open in the second half. Still, he'll likely be peppered with targets from Carson Wentz and even if he drops half of them, he could still end up with seven or eight catches. Agholor is a solid WR3 option with touchdown upside this week.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor took advantage of injuries on Sunday, catching eight passes for 107 yards and a touchdown. Agholor's score came on a four-yard pass from Carson Wentz in the third quarter. With DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery both forced to leave the game due to injury, Agholor took over as the top wide receiver for the entire second half. He flashed a bit, making a couple of great catches. If either of the receivers ahead of him on the depth chart are forced to miss more time, Agholor could suddenly become a WR2/3 option for a limited time.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is not a fantasy option for Week 2. Despite a matchup that should result in plenty of points for the Eagles, Agholor is unlikely to play a large role. With the Eagles showing a strong preference for two-tight end sets with both Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert on the field at the same time, Agholor ended up catching just two passes in Week 1. He'd need an injury to Alshon Jeffery or DeSean Jackson in order to become a worthwhile fantasy starter.
