Mack Hollins

Week 7 vs. Houston Texans

Mack Hollins was held catchless against the Chiefs before the bye last week. Even though he was targeted four times, it’s concerning to see his numbers decline with Hunter Renfrow back in the lineup. Against a middling Texans pass defense, sit Hollins until we see him emerge as more than the fourth option in the passing game again.

Week 4 vs. Denver Broncos

After eight targets in Week 2, Mack Hollins exploded last week against the Titans, catching eight of 10 targets for 158 yards and a touchdown. Hollins is a big-bodied receiver who seems to have gained the trust of Derek Carr and should continue to see an increase in looks while Hunter Renfrow is out. Renfrow’s status is uncertain going into Week 4, but even if he plays in the slot, expect Hollins to have a role outside.

This week, Hollins faces a Broncos defense that ranks seventh in aFPA to opposing receivers. If Renfrow plays, Hollins becomes hard to start in a tough matchup, but if Renfrow is out again, Hollins could reach WR3 numbers. Denver has done a good job defensively, but Brandon Aiyuk found the end zone against them last week, and the defense will likely pay the most attention to Davante Adams.

Week 10 vs. Baltimore Ravens

Mack Hollins has shown some promise in recent weeks when DeVante Parker is out. He had 61 yards in Week 6 and caught touchdowns in Week 7 and Week 9. However, if you take the touchdown away, you're left with very little production. Hollins did see a solid six targets last week, but 22 yards isn't enough to get excited over. Hollins would be a risky play in Week 10, especially against a tough Ravens defense.
