Who Should I Start? Nelson Agholor or Sterling Shepard

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Nelson Agholor is set to run it back with the organization next season. The veteran wideout agreed on a one-year extension with the Ravens on Sunday. If not re-signed by Monday, Agholor was set to become a free agent this offseason. However, the Ravens have decided to bring back Agholor after a solid first season in Baltimore. The 30-year-old hauled in 35 receptions for 381 receiving yards and four touchdowns in 17 games. He should remain a useful option in this passing attack next season.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released veteran wide receiver Sterling Shepard on Monday, according to a source. The 31-year-old pass-catcher signed with Tampa with the hopes of rekindling his rapport with old teammate Baker Mayfield. It may still happen, though, as the Bucs are holding a practice spot for him. The former second-round pick by the New York Giants in 2016 out of Oklahoma had a career-high 872 receiving yards in 2018, but injuries pretty much derailed what was once a promising career. Shepard was unable to play in more than 12 games from 2019-22. In 15 games (two starts) last year in New York's terrible offense, he caught just 10 of 22 targets for 57 yards and one touchdown. An undisclosed injury also kept Shepard out of all three preseason games with the Buccaneers. If he re-signs with the team, he'll merely be providing depth at the position behind Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Jalen McMillan and others.
