Eagles first-rounder Nelson Agholor said he was willing to “work like a peasant.”

Now, he doesn’t have to live like one.

According to Reuben Frank of CSNPhilly.com, Agholor has agreed to his rookie deal, making him the second first-rounder to sign.

There’s no reason not to do these deals immediately anymore, as the parameters are set and there’s not that much to negotiate.

And getting Agholor up and running is going to help settle an offense that has questions at the top, which will be much harder to solve.
