"I do not answer such questions," he said curtly when asked if he thought he could play against the Patriots.
Mack was restricted to training after not training on Wednesday or Thursday and is considered questionable for the match.

While refusing to discuss anything related to the injury, Mack seemed to indicate that he was planning to play.
"We had a cool week," he said to the question of how he had spent the week since his injury. "Just prepare myself mentally more than physically. I'm just getting ready for the game. "
Nagy said Mack was pushing to play. During his five year career, he has not missed a match. He played 69 games in a row with the Raiders and Bears.
Mack has his say, but Nagy said he would consult coach Andre Tucker to determine if Mack could play.
Elsewhere in the injury report, catcher Allen Robinson (groin) and cornerback Bryce Callahan (ankle) are questionable.
and cornerback Marcus Cooper (hamstring) is uncertain.

The corner prince, Amukamara, who aggravated a thigh injury against the Dolphins, participated full and should start. Left guard Eric Kush, limited Wednesday and Thursday because of a neck injury, has fully participated and should play.
Nagy called Callahan's absence "precautionary" and said that the fact that Robinson did not practice after being limited on Thursday was not a sign of hindsight.
