The Falcons have used a considerable amount of draft capital on rebuilding their offensive line over the past two offseasons, but the team’s best lineman was acquired in free agency.

The Falcons have committed a considerable amount of draft capital to rebuilding their offensive line over the past two years, but the team’s best lineman was acquired in free agency.

Alex Mack, a former first-round pick by the Browns in 2009, has solidified the middle of Atlanta’s offensive line since signing with the team in 2016. The Falcons reached the Super Bowl during Mack’s first season.

During a guest appearance on The Jim Rome Show, Mack talked about the potential challenges of playing without fans in the stadiums, and explained how he’s remained one of the league’s best offensive linemen for over a decade.
