BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 1% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: It will be very hard for some (if not most) fantasy GMs to trust someone like Nelson Agholor as a viable play ROS, but judging by what we saw in Thanksgiving and the absolute mess the Patriots are in terms of injured players, there is a chance Agholor ends eating just because someone has to do so.
Agholor closed TNF with six catches out of eight targets spread over 44 snaps on the field. He ran a route on 32 of those 44 snaps, and he finished the game with 65 receiving yards and a score for a total 18.5 PPR tally against Minny on the road.
As incredible as this sounds, none of those figures marked a season-high for him after what he did back in Week 2 (6-of-6 for 110 yards and one TD). That said, the stats Agholor put up last TNF were more than he had done in all prior five games he had appeared in combined (6 receptions, 10 targets, 66 yards, and no TDs).
Agholor, as well as DeVante Parker and Jakobi Meyers, got banged up and left the field at some point through TNF's game. Monitor the situation before making a decision (mostly about Parker when it comes to WW targets) but bet on Agholor if he is confirmed to be fit and available ahead of Week 13. Of course, only as a super-flier FLEX for those managing in deeper formats.
