Mack Hollins and 'the Backpack' are both hits with the Eagles

Mack Hollins rides his bike to and from practice and on home games to and from the Linc, and each time he has a backpack strapped over his shoulders. The Eagles receiver is a connoisseur of backpacks, he said. On Monday, after he made the 15-minute trek to the stadium, Hollins caught his first NFL touchdown and celebrated with a dance known as “The Backpack.” (Philadelphia Inquirer)
