Justin Hollins is getting another chance to impress with the Green Bay Packers.

Hollins, a 27-year-old rush linebacker who joined Green Bay in late November last season, re-signed with the Packers on Thursday on a one-year contract reportedly worth $1.2 million.

Hollins was originally a 2019 fifth-round draft choice of the Broncos. He spent one season in Denver before heading to the Los Angeles Rams, who he played for from 2020-22. He was part of the Super Bowl champion Rams team in 2021.

In six games last season with the Packers, Hollins recorded nine tackles and 2.5 sacks. He appeared in 10 games (five starts) for the Rams in 2022, registering 26 tackles and one sack, before being waived by Los Angeles.

Over 55 career games, Hollins, a product of Oregon, has 106 tackles and 9.5 sacks.
