"He just really emphasized that we are trying to protect the team," Neal said of Tamme, per SEC Country. "That was the point he was trying to get across. That's the biggest thing and it's true.
"He held me accountable. So, he put me in check. I got out of hand hitting him like that. We are a physical team, but we've got to protect the team. He emphasized that."
Neal was drafted by the Falcons with the No. 17 overall pick in the first round of the NFL Draft. Having played under head coach Dan Quinn before, Neal undoubtedly is feeling comfortable in his new digs.
