Carlton Agudosi, WR

If you don’t keep a close eye on the daily reports coming out of the Nova Care Complex in the summer, then you might not even know who Carlton Agudosi is. It was hard to miss the six-foot-six wideout in training camp because he stood out for his height.

For reference here, Eagles wideout Alshon Jeffery is six-foot-three-inches. So yes, Agudosi does have a significant size difference in comparison to other Eagles wideouts. In training camp, he used that difference to his advantage as his height was there to help him.

Unfortunately, his measurables alone couldn’t win him his battle. Knowing Mack Hollins was likely making the team regardless, any wideout behind him had an uphill battle. For a moment, it seemed like Agudosi could be that guy to make a case, but he failed to create any sort of impact on game night. A few days after final cuts, the former Rutgers wideout still hasn’t landed a new opportunity.
