FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) -- The Atlanta Falcons are holding out two key starters on their offense this week - center Alex Mack and wide receiver Julio Jones - because of injuries.
Coach Dan Quinn said Wednesday he expects Mack, who suffered a leg injury in Sunday's NFC championship game win over Green Bay, to be able to practice next week and play in the Feb. 5 Super Bowl against New England.
Quinn said Mack's leg was sore above his ankle.
Jones missed practice with a sprained toe through most of last week before practicing on Friday.
