“Millen here.”
Matt Millen has returned phone messages with the same greeting for years, and Saturday morning was no different.
The idea was to reach out to Millen to gain some insight on the Hall of Fame candidacy of his former coach Tom Flores, but also to check in to see how he was feeling five weeks after a heart transplant that saved his life.
Millen’s thoughts on Flores were inserted into a story on Flores that posted Friday. It’s safe to say that Millen’s recovery hasn’t included much convalescing in bed, nor has he been pushed around in a wheelchair.
