Who Should I Start? Laviska Shenault Jr. or Jamal Agnew

Friday, March 14, 8:56 AM

The Buffalo Bills have signed free-agent wide receiver/kicker returner Laviska Shenault Jr. to an undisclosed deal. Shenault most recently played 12 games between the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Chargers last season. He hasn't done much in the receiving game with five receptions for 36 yards over those 12 games last season. Shenault is better known for his kick returning ability as he averaged nearly 30 yards per return in 2024. He is still capable of making the occasional slash play on offense, but will likely be used mainly as a returner in Buffalo.

The Atlanta Falcons agreed to terms with former Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/kick returner Jamal Agnew on Thursday on a one-year deal worth a maximum of $2.5 million, a source tells NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Agnew spent last year on the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad as he recovered from a broken leg that he suffered late in the 2023 season, but he's now fully healthy. The 29-year-old former fifth-rounder (165th overall) by the Detroit Lions in 2017 out of the University of San Diego was a Pro Bowl returner in 2022 with the Jaguars, but he's unlikely to move the needle much on offense in Atlanta, where he'll serve as receiving depth behind Drake London, Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III, among others. Agnew was more involved on offense in his three years in Duval, but he still had only 61 catches for 641 yards and five touchdowns on 90 targets from 2021-23.
