The Falcons got an up-close look at Ra’Shede Hageman at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., as Hageman played under head coach Mike Smith’s coaching staff there.
It was the first time we saw new defensive line coach Bryan Cox and his coaching style in action and it made a big impact on the college seniors he was teaching.
Hageman told AtlantaFalcons.com just how much that style was helping him in Mobile:
“He wants you to do good, so I feel like me and him have that love-hate relationship. Sometimes I do good, sometimes he yells at me because I’m not doing things right, but at the end of the day, me and him definitely want the best for me. That’s why he’s a good coach.”
