Falcons defensive tackle Ra’Shede Hageman received a one-year, $735,000 contract that included a $15,000 signing bonus.

Hageman, who must serve a two-game suspension if he makes the team, signed the contract on Friday.

The Falcons elected to give their former second-round pick a second chance after he'd been out of the league in the wake of a domestic violence situation.

Donald Trump's administration deployed the military to Washington, D.C., in the name of fighting crime, and in an Aug. 11 news conference he mentioned the possibility of military being sent to other large American cities, all of which are led by Black, Democratic mayors.
