Former Ohio State Star Michael Hall Jr. Signs Rookie Deal with Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns have signed Michael Hall Jr., a former Ohio State defensive lineman, to his rookie contract. Hall declared for the NFL draft following Ohio State’s loss to Missouri in the Cotton Bowl and was selected by the Browns in the second round, 54th overall.
Hall, who grew up near Cleveland and attended Streetsboro High School, was a four-star prospect and ranked as the No. 8 defensive lineman in the nation.
At his introductory press conference, Hall expressed his excitement, stating, “I mean, it’s just a dream come true to be a Cleveland Brown here…”
Hall’s contract is a four-year deal worth $7,069,828, with $1,961,692 guaranteed. He is the last of Cleveland’s rookies to sign his contract, bringing the total number of former Buckeyes on the Browns’ roster to six.
