Nelson Agholor Fantasy

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor hasn't been able to make much noise since the season opener. In fact, he has three receptions or less in every game since Week 1. That's unlikely to change against a Cowboys defense that ranks ninth in pass DVOA so far in 2021. The Patriots brought in Agholor to be their deep threat, but they don't take too many risks with the ball. Quarterback Mac Jones tends to lean on short passes, which cuts Agholor out of the gameplan. He'll be a desperation flex option against the Cowboys in Week 6.

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 1. In fact, Agholor has not hauled in more than three receptions in a single game since the season opener. In Week 5, Agholor caught three of his four targets for 32 yards in the win over the Houston Texans. It shouldn't get easier for Agholor against the Dallas Cowboys defense next week. He'll be a possible deep league flex option, but Agholor hasn't given fantasy managers any reason to trust him.

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor was expected to be a big-play deep threat for this offense. However, Agholor has only one touchdown for 165 yards through four games this season. It seems that Jakobi Meyers is the favorite option in the passing game right now. That means, both Agholor and Kendrick Bourne aren't going to have great outlooks going forward. However, Agholor does have a solid matchup against the Houston Texans in Week 5. Normally, Agholor should be avoided, but he could have some boom-or-bust value against the Texans shaky secondary.
