Mack Hollins always has beat to his own drum.
The former UNC football standout does what makes him happy, whether that means not wearing shoes as he heads to the stadium (or even warms up for games) or simply going against what most consider to be the "norm."
Hollins is the definition of fun, as his Halloween costume that he wore ahead of Sunday's game to Gillette Stadium is simply EPIC!
Checkmate!

Hollins is literally the only NFL player who could successfully pull off this look. The former Tar Heel rocked a chess-piece costume, of course having no shoes on to finish the look off.
We can all learn a valuable lesson from Mack Hollins-life's too short not to have fun with it!
Hollins is all fun off the field but means business on it, as his seven catches for 89 yards led all New England Patriot receivers in their 32-13 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday afternoon.
The former Tar Heel won twice on Sunday: once with his team, and the other for the best Halloween costume worn by any NFL player as they arrived to their respective stadiums this weekend.
