Someone who struck fear into opposing players; an Alpha among Alphas.

Thomas and Bennett are before my time. In recent history I’d go with McClain or Foster.

Even though he didn’t play defense, Julio Jones struck fear into opposing teams. Was an absolute monster.

George Teague & Antonio Langham were 2 nasty ones in the secondary.

Depends on what savage means. I would say that it would be someone from back in the day when men played with broken legs, nearly torn off ears, shattered noses, etc.

George Teague had the most “savage” play in the history of football. I’d also throw in the duo of Curry/Copeland. That whole 92’ defense was savage

McClain in recent times for sure. Just all-around.

I’ve never known anyone close to the program. But based on a few threads here and videos I’ve seen I believe Rolando McClain is the correct answer.

I’m gonna go off the board for this one, but in some of our darker days (the early part of my fanhood), Lane Bearden the punter was a tough dude that would light some folks up. Kicked for a year on a torn ACL.

Reuben Foster was a heat seeking missile. I’ve never seen anyone hit like that and I’m in my mid 50s.
