Report: Browns rookie DT facing arrest following domestic dispute image

Michael Hall Jr., a Cleveland native and Ohio State product, will reportedly be arrested following a domestic dispute that occurred on Monday night.

Hall, 21, was the 54th overall selection by the Browns in the 2024 NFL Draft. This was the Browns' first selection in the draft.  He played three years in Ohio State with the 2023 season being his best with a career-high 24 total tackles. 

He played in Saturday's preseason game against the Packers and recorded one tackle.

 

The Browns are aware of the situation and issued the following statement: "We are aware of the incident involving Mike Hall, Jr. last night. Mike and his representatives have been in touch with the appropriate authorities. We are in the process of gathering more information and will have no further comment at the time."

Hall is listed as the third right defensive tackle on the Browns depth chart behind Shelby Harris and Quinton Jefferson.
