Eagles' Mack Hollins hopes the extra work he's putting in pays off in Year 2

Posted Aug 14, 2018
Practice is over and Mack Hollins hurries off the field and heads straight for the Eagles’ locker room, where he peels off his sweat-soaked practice gear and spends about 25 minutes relaxing at his locker. Then, still barefoot, the hippy-dippy second-year wide receiver with the pet ball python and boa constrictor heads back out to the field for a daily 30-minute catching session.
