For the second straight day on Thursday, Bears superstar outside linebacker was held out of practice as he recovers from an ankle injury suffered in last Sunday’s 31-28 loss to the Dolphins.
Mack, 27, rolled his ankle early in the first half in Miami but still ended up playing 62 of 78 defensive snaps. Even while it is disconcerting not to have Mack practice at all in the midst of the week leading up to a matchup against the offensive machine known as the Patriots, it shouldn’t be that big of a concern.
