Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski said Da’Shawn Hand will miss the remainder of the season with a torn quad.

It was reported earlier in the day that Hand was believed to have suffered a season-ending quad injury, but Stefanski confirmed the worst on Monday. Hand, who signed a one-year deal with the Falcons this offseason, was expected to serve as a major contributor on the Falcons’ defensive line. The 30-year-old tackle will now spend the remainder of the season rehabbing and could be in search of a new home next offseason.
