ON THE FALCONS BEAT
Hageman excused from latter part of practice for personal matter
2014, Round 2, Pick 37: Ra'Shede Hageman, defensive tackle, made 15 starts in 44 games over three seasons. He had 18 tackles in 12 games in 2016. What happened next? Hageman and a defensive line coach famously scuffled on the sidelines during a game in 2015. His role diminished, he is expected to continue to be a contributor on defense.
