The New England Patriots are reportedly pulling wide receiver Mack Hollins off the physically unable to perform list on Thursday, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo.
That means the veteran wideout is set to make his debut at training camp with the team.

Hollins signed with the Patriots as part of their free agent splash back in March. He’s a big-bodied receiving target who can serve as a downfield threat and extra playmaker in the red zone. There’s also his ability to excel in the grunt work as an extra blocker on the field.
During his final appearance with the Buffalo Bills, he racked up three receptions for 73 yards and a touchdown in the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Overall, Hollins proved to be a good contributor with 31 receptions for 378 yards and five touchdowns.
The Patriots are hopeful that he can serve as a solid veteran option further down the depth chart. His best season came under Josh McDaniels with the Las Vegas Raiders in 2022, when he hauled in 57 receptions for 690 yards and four touchdowns.
With McDaniels returning as the offensive coordinator, the duo will have an opportunity to find that same magic in New England.
