This unit has a much different look than that of 2014. The Atlanta Falcons are sporting five new starts, three of which have never started a game in the NFL. Those three would be Beasley, Hageman and Allen. The other two new starters on the Falcons’ defense are linebackers Durant and Schofield. Schofield is taking the place of Brooks Reed who is on short-term IR after hip surgery.
