Mack Hollins, WR

Somehow, someway, Mack Hollins found himself to be a Philadelphia fan favorite as early as his first season as an Eagle. With only 13 receptions for 201 yards and a touchdown, Hollins has still been able to prove his worth with such a limited amount time. With an important role on special teams, he has proven himself to be very reliable on kick/punt coverage, which will come in handy in the future.

This week, though, Hollins will likely see an increase in snaps on the offesnse. Even though he had a little bit more playing time last week, he wasn’t targeted at all. Now with the starters seeing a limited day, the Eagles fans will finally get what they have been begging for all season. More Mack Hollins.

Aside from Sidney Jones, Hollins will be the most exciting player to watch on Sunday. Come 2018, we would see a solid receiving core with Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor, and Hollins. This week gives us a decent preview of what Hollins could bring to the table for years to come. Also, if he happens to have a monster game against Dallas, the Eagles fan base would want Hollins here forever if they don’t already.
