Patriots retain Mack Hollins after contract negotiation adjustment

The New England Patriots retained wide receiver Mack Hollins after he accepted a revised contract. The adjustments changed his performance incentives from those likely to be earned to those considered less likely, reflecting uncertainty regarding his spot on the roster. Hollins's new incentives include targets of 47, 50, and 55 receptions for varying bonus amounts. This decision comes in light of injuries to A.J. Brown and the trade of Kayshon Boutte, positioning Hollins as a key target for quarterback Drake Maye. Hollins expressed gratitude for remaining with the team and his commitment to perform at a high level.
