FLOWERY BRANCH Dexter Williams Jersey , Ga. (AP) — to a one-year deal on Friday, giving a second chance to the defensive tackle the team released in 2017 after he was charged with domestic violence.Hageman, 28, was a second-round pick from Minnesota in 2014. He started a combined 16 games in 2015 and 2016. He has been out of the league since his release by the Falcons following an incident with his girlfriend in 2016.If he makes the roster, Hageman will be suspended for the first two games of the 2019 season for a violation of the substance abuse policy following a recent DWI arrest. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy told The Associated Press all teams were informed of the suspension on April 5.General manager Thomas Dimitroff said in a statement released by the team the Falcons believe in giving opportunities “when people take responsibility for their actions and are committed to change.”“We believe Ra’Shede understands that his conduct was wrong and has learned from his mistakes,” Dimitroff said. “He has met the obligations of the court in his prior matters and worked hard over the last two years including community service, intensive course work and rehab. That said Max Scharping Jersey , we understand the seriousness of his actions, and he knows we will not tolerate abusive behavior in any form.”Hageman (6-6, 310) had 18 tackles and two sacks in 2016.He was placed the Commissioner’s Exempt List on Sept. 2, 2017 as the NFL investigated charges filed by DeKalb County prosecutors following the March 2016 incident at the home of his girlfriend, Janeal Jefferies. Hageman faced charges of battery, cruelty to children and interfering with calls for emergency assistance.He was released by the Falcons two days later.“Ra’Shede has taken responsibility for his actions and continues to show genuine remorse as well as an ongoing commitment to getting better,” said coach Dan Quinn in a statement. “He has put in the work necessary for us to give him another opportunity.”Hageman’s return comes as the Falcons have sought to solidify the defensive tackle position. It is seen as one of the team’s top needs entering next week’s NFL draft. The Chargers only lost four times during the regular season and they were able to get some payback for two of those defeats by beating the Chiefs and Broncos in their second meetings with their AFC West rivals.They’ll get a chance to answer another one of their losses in Baltimore on Sunday. The Ravens beat the Chargers 22-10 in Week 16 http://www.texansauthorizedshops.com/authentic-kahale-warring-jersey , so it hasn’t been long since their first meeting and Chargers defensive end Isaac Rochell said that’s a good thing when it comes to dealing with the Baltimore offense.“It helps a lot because it’s fresh,” Rochell said, via ESPN.com. “You don’t have to dig weeks back or game plan for a team you’ve never seen before. So it’s good for us that we’ve seen them two weeks ago, and we just have to sharpen the game plan and get better, pick up on things that you didn’t pick up on the first time.”The Chargers held both Jackson and the Ravens as a whole to their fewest rushing yards since Jackson took over as the team’s starting quarterback, but safety Derwin James still expects Baltimore to try to run the ball right at them on Sunday.“You just have to play rules football, and you need every hat to the ball Cullen Gillaspia Jersey ,” James said. “It’s not like a normal game where you’re like, ‘OK, he’s going to make the tackle.’ He might cut it back, so we need you.”While the Chargers defense will be trying for a repeat, the key to the game could be how the Chargers offense changes things up from last time. They were held to 198 yards in Week 16 and tight end Antonio Gates‘ fumble late in the fourth quarter in Baltimore territory resulted in a touchdown that put the game out of reach.
