An important offensive weapon made his return to the New England Patriots practice field Wednesday.
Wide receiver Nelson Agholor was present at the Patriots’ first practice of Week 18, per Mike Dussault of Patriots.com.
Agholor had not played or practiced since suffering a concussion during New England’s Week 15 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He sat out the previous six practices and two games — a loss to the Buffalo Bills and a win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Though he’s been unable to match his 2020 production in his first season with New England, Agholor’s speed and deep-threat ability add an important element to the Patriots’ offense.
