Agholor, 23, has struggled in his first two seasons as an Eagle. He was the team's 20th overall pick in the 2015 draft. The Eagles signed Jeffery to a one-year deal. 94WIP's Ike Reese believes the number switch could help the former USC receiver.
I honestly believe the number switch is good for Nelson! Gives him a fresh start, I haven't given up on him. The talent is there. ????
