WR Mack Hollins reveals three reasons why he signed with Patriots
Veteran wide receiver Mack Hollins revealed three things played a factor in his signing with the New England Patriots.
He got to reunite with former Las Vegas Raiders coach Josh McDaniels, who he had his career-best season playing under in 2022. His other two reasons for coming to New England were the tradition of the Patriots organization and a chance to play for newly-hired head coach Mike Vrabel.
Hollins served as a willing blocker and a reliable red zone target for the Buffalo Bills in 2024, finishing with 31 catches for 378 yards and five touchdowns.
He'll try to use his size at 6-foot-4 and 221 pounds to add another offensive threat to a Patriots' unit that struggled last season.

Hollins may not be the big-named receiver Patriots fans have been looking for, but he could provide a solid complementary piece for the offense.
The offseason picture isn't complete for New England, but this was a solid signing for a player who has shown a willingness to do the grunt work, while also making tough plays.
