FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — New England Patriots receiver Mack Hollins is learning that the best way to stand out within a crowded receiver room is to work his way to the top of the depth chart.
The eight-year veteran, known for his steadfast work ethic, began training camp on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list. Still, Hollins remained determined to keep pace with his teammates by studying the team’s playbook, as well as observing its implementation on the practice fields.
As a result, Hollins quickly assimilated into the Patriots’ offense upon his return to practice last week — albeit in a limited capacity.
