Philadelphia Eagles receiver Nelson Agholor is expected to be back in the lineup Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals after missing last week's game as a healthy scratch, a source told ESPN's Adam Caplan.

Performance issues through the first ten games of the season caused the Eagles to bench Agholor in Week 12 against the Green Bay Packers, but with receiver Jordan Matthews questionable to play Sunday, his services may be needed.

The 2015 first-round pick was held without a catch in Week 11 against the Seattle Seahawks and had just two receptions for 7 yards the week before. He has accumulated 27 catches for 264 yards and one touchdown this season, ranking fifth on his team.
