Marlon Mack

Mack is going to be a tough one to project in 2021, as he's returning from an Achilles injury, which used to be a career killer. It still might be, and it's not like Mack was lighting the world on fire before he suffered that injury. Jonathan Taylor is the lead back and Nyheim Hines will cap upside as the receiving back, so Mack is arguably just a second-tier handcuff who also has question marks about his health.

Marlon Mack (Achilles) enters training camp ‘100 percent’ healthy

Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports that Indianapolis Colts RB Marlon Mack (Achilles) is “100 percent” to start training camp.

Fantasy Impact

Mack tore his Achilles in Week 1 of last season, and after months of rehab, is “100 percent” to start training camp. This is excellent news for Mack as he didn’t participate in practice and was limited to individual athletic activities during the Colts' voluntary workouts. With a clean bill of health, Mack is expected to serve as the backup running back behind sure-fire RB1 Jonathan Taylor. The 25-year-old could take on the Colts’ early-down role if Taylor were to miss any time and is currently 56th among all running backs in the latest expert consensus rankings.
