Early years

Ra’shede Hageman was born in Minneapolis with younger brother Xavier. Hageman traveled in, and out of various foster homes in Minneapolis-Saint Paul area, until being adopted at age 7.

Hageman was considered one of the top defensive tackle prospects for the 2014 NFL draft. [7] [8] He was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the second round, 37th overall in the 2014 NFL draft. [9] In his rookie season, he recorded 16 total tackles and one sack. [10]

In the 2015 season, Hageman recorded 27 total tackles and one sack. [11]

On September 2, 2017, Hageman was placed on the Commissioner's Exempt List as a result of domestic violence-related charges filed by prosecutors in DeKalb County, Georgia, following a March 2016 incident. [14] He was later released by the Falcons on September 4, 2017. [15]

On April 19, 2019, Hageman was re-signed by the Falcons on a one-year contract after being out of football for two seasons and the domestic violence charge against him was dropped.
