The Ravens signed Agholor to a one-year contract extension Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Agholor will stick with the Ravens after a solid first season with the team in 2023 in which he caught 35 of 45 targets for 381 yards and four touchdowns. The 6-foot speedster didn't enjoy a significant uptick in his overall production compared to his previous two-year span with the Patriots, but his pass-catching efficiency greatly improved, as he had caught just 68 of 117 targets during this stint in New England. He also was reserved into much more of a depth role in Baltimore while playing behind top wideouts Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham, the latter of whom currently is set for free agency after he also signed a one-year contract with the Ravens last offseason. Agholor, who is entering his age-31 season, should reprise a role as a depth piece in Baltimore's receiving corps behind Flowers and Bateman as well as standout tight end Mark Andrews next season.

Agholor finished the regular season with 35 catches for 381 yards and four touchdowns on 45 targets.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran was a reliable target in the Ravens passing game as he notched a strong 78 percent catch rate over a 45-target sample. Agholor was primarily used on short and intermediate routes, as evidenced by his 8.8 ADoT. He also had a low target-per-route percentage of 13.1, which ranked in the 17th percentile among receivers. In fairness, Baltimore had plenty of mouths to feed with the likes of Zay Flowers, Odell Beckham, Mark Andrews (pre-injury) and Rashod Bateman all in the fold. Agholor signed with Baltimore as a free agent in 2023 on a one-year deal, so his future with the team is uncertain beyond this season. He projects to have a similar role if he returns next season, but the 30-year-old could opt to hit the market in hopes of landing with a team that will feature him more. Agholor's season is not yet finished, though, as the Ravens host the Texans in the Divisional Round on Saturday.

Agholor was held without a catch (one target) on 27 snaps against the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran saw his snap count scale back Sunday as he dropped from 42 snaps against the Rams to just 27 (39 percent) against the Jags. Still, Sunday's game was more in line with Agholor's usage over the course of the season than his game against the Rams. Outside of the Rams game, Agholor has drawn two or fewer targets each week since Week 7. Baltimore's primary loadout at receiver consists of Zay Flowers, Odell Beckham and Rashod Bateman, which does not leave much room for significant contributions from Agholor most weeks considering the offense's preference for bigger personal groupings that feature at least one tight end more often than not.

Agholor caught all five of his targets for 32 yards Sunday against the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
This marks Agholor's busiest day in terms of targets since Week 5 when he also drew five targets against the Steelers. The veteran wasn't overly explosive with his opportunities but he was efficient, reeling in every pass thrown his way. The Ravens had interesting usage with its receiving corps Sunday; Zay Flowers led the group with a 97 percent snap count, which is the norm, but Agholor was next in line among receivers with a 60 percent snap share. Odell Beckham and Rashod Bateman each played over 45 percent of the snaps, respectively, meaning that the Ravens were comfortable giving high snap volumes to four different wideouts. Agholor generally vacillates between 35 percent to 50 percent of the snaps, so Sunday was potentially an outlier both in terms of snap share and target share. Baltimore's receiver usage will be an interesting detail to monitor in the upcoming game against the Jaguars on Sunday.

Agholor caught one of two targets for 21 yards in Sunday's win over the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran played 41 percent of the snaps, which is in line with his usage rates over the course of the season when the rest of the receiving corps is healthy. Agholor has seen two or fewer targets in six straight weeks and has recorded four receptions for 72 yards and two touchdowns in that span. Even with Mark Andrews' ankle injury opening up plenty of targets to get redistributed, Agholor doesn't appear to be a candidate to see more work. Baltimore is on a bye Week 13 before returning to action against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 10.

Agholor reeled in his lone target for a 37-yard touchdown in Thursday's win over the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran will miss playing the Bengals again this season as two of his three touchdowns have come against Cincinnati. Agholor has not caught more than one pass in a game since Week 6 against Tennessee, and his touchdown catch Thursday came on a deflection. He is playing a decent amount of snaps, averaging well over 20 per week, but targets are not coming his way often. The offensive philosophy could shift in the coming weeks with Mark Andrews likely done for the season, but that doesn't mean that Agholor is in line for an uptick in usage. However, Odell Beckham's status will be worth monitoring going into Week 12 after he left with a shoulder injury against the Bengals.

Agholor caught his lone target for a 12-yard touchdown in Sunday's win over the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran only played 37 percent of the snaps Sunday, which was fourth among Baltimore receivers as Zay Flowers, Odell Beckham and Rashod Bateman checked in as the primary options in three-wide looks. Still, Agholor made his opportunity count as he reeled in his second touchdown of the season. His snap count will be something to monitor for those rostering him in deeper formats considering Sunday marked the first time since Week 2 that he didn't earn at least a 50 percent share. Baltimore travels to Arizona to face the Cardinals in Week 8.

Agholor caught two of three targets for 40 yards Sunday in a 24-16 win over the Titans in London.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran has now racked up six catches for 104 yards over the last two weeks. Agholor played 52 percent of the snaps, which was the second-most on the team among receivers, behind only Zay Flowers. With Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham off to slow starts, Agholor is settling in as the No.3 option in Baltimore's passing game. The Ravens take on the Lions at home in Week 7.

Agholor caught four of five targets for 64 yards Sunday against the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
After being held to one catch for four yards against the Browns in Week 4, Agholor rebounded with one of his best games of the season. It wasn't perfect, though, as a potential touchdown pass slipped through his fingers in the third quarter that could have put Baltimore up by two possessions. Still, Agholor played the second-most snaps among Ravens receivers even with Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham returning from injury. The Ravens take on the Titans in London in Week 6.

Agholor is expected to serve as Baltimore's No. 2 wide receiver Sunday against the Browns with both Odell Beckham (ankle) and Rashod Bateman (hamstring) ruled out for the contest, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bateman is sitting out for the first time this season, while Beckham will miss his second straight contest. The latter's absence paved the way for Agholor to play a season-best 72 percent of the offensive snaps in a 22-19 overtime loss to the Colts in Week 3, with the 30-year-old finishing with four catches for 39 yards on four targets. With Bateman now joining Beckham on the sideline, Agholor could be third in the pecking order for targets behind No. 1 wideout Zay Flowers and tight end Mark Andrews. Devin Duvernay and practice-squad member Laquon Treadwell are also likely to see snaps alongside Flowers and Agholor in three-receiver sets.
