The Patriots have added another former Eagle.

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Patriots have agreed to terms with veteran Nelson Agholor. It's a two-year deal worth up to $26 million, as Mike Garafolo explains.

The 27-year-old is coming off a big year with the Raiders, finishing with 48 catches for 896 yards and eight touchdowns. That was his first year with Las Vegas after spending the first five years of his career with the Eagles. Last season he tied a career-high in touchdowns and set a career-high in yards.

Agholor, who is 6-feet tall, is known for his speed, which the Patriots need at the position. It also gives the room another veteran presence.

The money seems a bit high, but perhaps that is what the wide receiver market is.
