One of the NFL's most dominant pass-rushers will miss significant time, as Atlanta Falcons outside linebacker Vic Beasley suffered a hamstring injury Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers.
Zach Klein of WSB TV reported the injury is a slight hamstring tear and that the third-year player is expected to miss about a month. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network confirmed the report.
After a somewhat modest rookie season, Beasley broke out in a big way in 2016, as he led the NFL with 15.5 sacks while also registering 39 tackles and a fumble recovery returned for a touchdown.
