Patriots hit by another injury blow as Mack Hollins lands on IR ahead of Raiders game

The New England Patriots placed wide receiver Mack Hollins on injured reserve Saturday due to a calf injury, ruling him out ahead of Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Hollins leads New England this season with 15 receptions and 209 receiving yards. Fullback Reggie Gilliam was also moved to injured reserve with ankle and knee injuries, sidelining both players for at least four games.

These roster moves follow Friday's announcements that starting cornerbacks Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis III will miss Sunday's matchup due to injuries. The Patriots have dealt with multiple roster setbacks, including receiver A.J. Brown, who has been sidelined with a high-ankle sprain since the season opener.
