Agholor's deal with the Ravens is a one-year $3.25 million with another $3 million available in incentives. He became the first free agent signed to the team this off-season.
He will join a wide receiver room that features Rashod Bateman, Devin Duvernay, James Proche II, and Andy Isabella. Agholor joined a much-needed wide receiver group as they finished last in receiving yards in three out of the last four seasons.
The 29-year-old has the potential to become the number one wideout in Baltimore for quarterback Lamar Jackson. The signing of Agholor also doesn't rule out the team adding another wide receiver in the off-season or in the draft.
