Fantasy Football: 5 must starts for Eagles in Week 3 against Colts

2. Nelson Agholor

Give credit to Nelson Agholor credit for doing everything in his power to be productive for the Eagles at receiver to help make up for all the injuries they’ve been dealing with so far in September, and seeing him record that first touchdown in Week 2 was great to see. Similar to Ertz, it’s been amazing to see Agholor record 16 catches over the first two games, but seeing how it’s only been for 121 yards shows how much of a struggle it’s been as well for Philadelphia in the receiving department.

Unfortunately for Agholor, opposing defenders realize that he’s going to be one of the top targets as a result of the injuries, meaning they’re not going to have any issues focusing a little extra attention on him each play. But just like with Ertz as well, Nelson is another player that should benefit right away from the return of Wentz along with the recent signing of Matthews.

When taking these factors into consideration, Agholor hopefully won’t be forced to deal with as much pressure on Sunday to produce at receiver since he should have additional help from some of his teammates. Agholor took a major step in the right direction last season by showing he does in fact have what it takes to be an effective receiver in this offense, and the Colts will certainly have their hands full this weekend when it comes to keeping him in check.
