Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins snapped a two-game touchdown streak in the 48-42 win over the Detroit Lions on the road in Week 15 on Sunday. Hollins was targeted just three times in the high-scoring affair and was able to come down with one grab for a gain of seven yards. The dud performance coincided with both rookie wideout Keon Coleman and tight end Dalton Kincaid returning from their respective injuries. Coleman and Kincaid combined for five catches on nine targets. Meanwhile, running back Ty Johnson surprisingly led the team with five receptions for 114 yards through the air. The 31-year-old Hollins had five catches on seven targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns the previous two games, but that may be the high point of his production this year now that Coleman and Kincaid are healthy. Hollins is a nice red-zone target, but he won't be a recommended flex play moving forward.
Although he's not the best receiver on the Buffalo Bills roster, Mack Hollins has found his role on the team. He's an outstanding blocker and leads the team in receiving touchdowns. However, Buffalo has yet to play a game with their full roster of receivers. Amari Cooper (wrist) and Keon Coleman (wrist) have missed time since the former debuted in Week 7. They'll both be active on Sunday. Tight end Dalton Kincaid (knee) is also expected to return to the field. Although not heavily rostered now, there's even less trust in Hollins to turn a productive fantasy football performance. He can remain on waiver wires in Week 15.
Mack Hollins Scores Late Touchdown Against The Rams
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins caught four of six targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in the team's 42-44 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. His score came from 21 yards away midway through the fourth quarter. Hollins' playing time has increased with Keon Coleman (wrist) out of the lineup and he's now found paydirt two games in a row. However, there's little consistency in his usage with several players ahead of him in the target pecking order. Coleman is nearing a return, which would send Hollins to the sidelines more often. He does not need to be added to fantasy football rosters.
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins is not on the fantasy radar for Week 14's outing against the Los Angeles Rams. LA is actually a strong matchup for wide receivers, as they allow the twelfth-most fantasy points per game to wideouts (34.1) -- so that isn't the issue. The problem is Hollins' fantasy output. Despite leading all Buffalo wide receivers in snaps thus far, he's their fifth-leading receiver regarding yardage (231) and sixth in receptions (19). The 31-year-old caught a seven-yard touchdown in last week's victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Still, it was his only reception and target in the win on 66% of snaps. Even with a better-than-average matchup, the veteran is nothing more than a touchdown-dependent dart throw in Week 14. He ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR72 for this week's slate of games.
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins (shoulder) is in line for another start in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Keon Coleman (wrist) will be inactive. Amari Cooper (wrist) is a question mark. Hollins is also on the injury report but did not miss practice this week and will be active on Sunday. With both Coleman and Cooper out of the lineup in Week 10, Hollins led the Bills with 86 receiving yards. Most of his production came on a 44-yard completion. Against a great Kansas City defense, Hollins can't be trusted to pace the Bills again nor should he be in fantasy football lineups. Buffalo's coaching staff likes him on the field for his intangibles more than his receiving skills.
Mack Hollins Leads Bills In Receiving Yards Against Indianapolis
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins caught all four of his targets for 86 yards in the team's 30-20 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. He led Buffalo in receiving yards. Hollins made the most of his increased playing time with Amari Cooper (wrist) and Keon Coleman (wrist) sidelined. He and Curtis Samuel primarily manned the outside receiver spots. Most of his production came on a 44-yard completion to set up a last-second field goal before halftime. Hollins will revert to a secondary role if Cooper and Coleman can return against the Chiefs.
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins (shoulder) was removed from the injury report heading into Sunday's matchup with the Colts. He practiced in full on Wednesday. However, there were some doubts regarding his availability after logging limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. Fortunately, he's good to go against Indianapolis. The 31-year-old is coming off his best game of the 2024-25 campaign, catching all five targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Dolphins. With Keon Coleman (wrist) out and Amari Cooper (wrist) questionable, there could be opportunities for others on the offensive end. While Khalil Shakir should remain Josh Allen's preferred receiving option, Hollins could gain streaming potential in deep league fantasy formats if Cooper doesn't suit up.
Buffalo Bills wide receivers Curtis Samuel (pectoral) and Mack Hollins (shoulder) were both wearing non-contact jerseys at Thursday's practice session. Hollins was listed as a full participant on Wednesday, so this would represent a downgrade for him. Samuel returned in the Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins after missing Week 8, but he failed to catch his only target with Amari Cooper (wrist) out and has gone without a catch in each of his last two games. Rookie Keon Coleman (wrist) might miss multiple weeks, but even with Buffalo's receivers beat up, Samuel isn't an attractive starting fantasy lineup option. Hollins had gone without a catch in each of his last two games before bringing in all five of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Week 9. If Cooper is out again this weekend, Hollins will be a touchdown-dependent WR4/flex option, at best, in deeper leagues.
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins caught two passes for 25 yards and a touchdown in Week 1. As was the case throughout his career, Hollins appears now and then with a double-digit fantasy football game. And just like his previous stops, Hollins is a part-time player who does the little things well. Interestingly, however, the Bills utilized Hollins far more than Curtis Samuel. The latter played 17 (27%) of the Bills' snaps in Week 1 and appeared to be the direct backup to Khalil Shakir. Hollins will be on the field for most three-receiver sets. That doesn't mean he needs to be on fantasy football rosters. He'll continue to be a low-target receiver who catches a touchdown or long pass from time to time. Keep Hollins on waiver wires ahead of the team's matchup with Miami on Thursday Night Football.
The Buffalo Bills agreed to terms with free-agent wide receiver Mack Hollins on an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to sources. As of right now, Hollins is essentially replacing Gabe Davis, who agreed to join the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency earlier this week. In a run-heavy offensive scheme with the Atlanta Falcons with inconsistency all year at quarterback, Hollins caught just 18 passes for 251 yards and no touchdowns in 13 games in 2023. However, the year before in 2022 with the Las Vegas Raiders, the 30-year-old had a career-best 57-690-4 line in 17 games. The Bills will probably be looking to add more help to the receiver room through free agency and the draft, but as of right now, Hollins' fantasy stock in deeper leagues is trending up with the move to Buffalo.
