  "account": "The New England Patriots will miss out on their star receiver when they take on the Las Vegas Raiders this Sunday. Wide receiver Mack Hollins was placed on injured reserve on Saturday due to a calf injury. Fullback Reggie Gilliam, who is struggling with ankle and knee issues, was also sent to the injured reserve list. Both players are expected to miss the next four games. This setback comes shortly after the team lost starting cornerbacks Christian Gonzalez (shoulder) and Carlton Davis III (neck) for Sunday's match. Hollins, who leads the Patriots in receptions (15) and yards (209), will be a major loss. A.J. Brown, another Patriots receiver, has been on injured reserve since injuring his high ankle in the season opener against Seattle. He is expected to return to practice next week.",
