Falcons starting center Alex Mack will return to full participation in practice on Thursday, coach Dan Quinn said.

The team is set to start practice at 2:20 p.m.

Mack was limited on Wednesday with a back injury.

Also, Quinn said he is not overly concerned with rookie Duke Riley’s knee injury. He said that Riley has made a lot of progress but would still be limited in practice.
