FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons Pro Bowl center Alex Mack could "barely walk" following the NFC Championship Game after suffering a hairline fracture in his left fibula, but Mack said Tuesday he finally started to feel better two weeks after his team’s Super Bowl LI loss to New England.
Mack addressed the media for the first time since the Super Bowl. He continues to recover from the injury, which did not require surgery although Mack spent a significant time getting treatment.
"That’s where the short offseason kind of goes in … less time to really heal,’’ Mack said.
