Buffalo Bills Agree To Sign Former Falcons Wide Receiver

The Buffalo Bills have agreed to sign former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mack Hollins, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.

Hollins is coming off of a 2023 campaign in which he played 13 games and logged 18 catches for 251 yards.

The 30-year-old, who played his collegiate football at the University of North Carolina, went undrafted but landed with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2017.

He had a very limited role with the Eagles during his rookie year, recording 16 grabs for 226 yards and a touchdown.

Hollins did not play at all in 2018, and in 2019, he split the campaign between Philadelphia and the Miami Dolphins, amassing a grand total of 10 catches for 125 yards.

He would proceed to spent the next two seasons with the Dolphins in 2020 and 2021 and was a relative afterthought in Miami’s offense, accumulating 30 catches for 399 and five scores.

Hollins then made his way to the Las Vegas Raiders in 2022 where he enjoyed the best season of his career to date. That year, he hauled in 57 receptions for 690 yards while reaching the end zone four times.

The Rockville, Md. native signed with the Falcons last offseason.

The Bills entered the offseason with a very rough salary cap situation and had to cut a bunch of notable players in order to make things manageable.

As a result, Buffalo has been unable to really make too much noise in free agency, as it remains very tight against the cap.

The Bills lost fellow wide out Gabe Davis, so while Hollins isn’t exactly going to be able to fill Davis’ shoes, he will at least add some depth to the club’s wide receiver room.

Buffalo went 11-6 and won its fourth straight AFC East division title this past year. It defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs before losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Divisional Round.
