Falcons defensive tackle Ra’Shede Hageman (concussion) has been cleared to fully participate in practice, Falcons coach Dan Quinn said on Wednesday.
“That’s a huge addition for us,” Quinn said. “I know he can’t wait to get going.”
Hageman did not play in the second exhibition game against the Jets after suffering a concussion in practice. He went through the league’s concussion protocol.
Linebacker Derek Akunne (foot), running back Antone Smith (hamstring), safety William Moore (calf) and running back Evan Royster (ribs) were not expected to practice.
