Odell Beckham didn't play much in the divisional round, with Baltimore instead leaning on Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor alongside No. 1 receiver Zay Flowers.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Nelson re-signed with the Buccaneers in the offseason after turning in a career-best season in 2022 that saw him amass 46 tackles, including 5.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery while appearing in every regular-season game for the third consecutive campaign. The 2019 fourth-round pick is considered a starting-quality backup at this stage after filling in admirably for Shaquil Barrett's following the latter's Week 8 Achilles tear last season.
