Report: Nelson Agholor To Play Vs. Bengals

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- It looks like Nelson Agholor will be back on the field for the Eagles this week.

According to 94WIP's Howard Eskin, Agholor is a "lock" to play Sunday at the Bengals.

Agholor, 23, was inactive on Monday night against the Packers, as the Eagles dressed undrafted rookie receiver Paul Turner. Turner played 23 snaps, but was not targeted.

Starting wide receiver Jordan Matthews left Monday's game with an ankle injury, but Doug Pederson says he expects to play on Sunday.

In 23 career games, Agholor has just 50 catches for 547 yards and two touchdowns. His 547 receiving yards is worst among NFL starting receivers since the start of the 2015 season.
