The Atlanta Falcons have a new No. 2 wide receiver after signing free agent Mack Hollins, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Sunday evening. Hollins, 29, had a career-best 57 catches for 690 receiving yards and four touchdowns for the Las Vegas Raiders last season.

Outside of Drake London, the Falcons were relatively thin at wide receiver. The team has yet to re-sign Olamide Zaccheaus or Damiere Byrd. Hollins is a 6-foot-4, 220-pound wideout, who served as the Raiders’ No. 2 WR behind Davante Adams in 2022.
Don’t be surprised if Atlanta adds another receiver or two in free agency or the upcoming NFL draft. Our latest seven-round Falcons mock has the team trading back and selecting Ohio State’s Jaxon Smith-Njigba at pick No. 13.
