Why was Browns' Michael Hall arrested? Rookie DT in big trouble

The Cleveland Browns drafted Michael Hall 54th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft, but his future is a little murky now. The defensive tackle was involved in a domestic dispute and will soon be arrested for an incident on Monday evening. The arrest hasn't happened yet, but it is expected.

NFL writer Zac Jackson reported on X, formerly known as Twitter:

"Source: Browns rookie DT Michael Hall is expected to be arrested following a domestic dispute Monday night."

Details are scarce, as the arrest hasn't happened yet and the report has only just broken. This is a developing story, and Hall's status with the Browns moving forward depends on what comes to light about the incident.

Hall was their top overall selection this year since they did not have a first-round pick after the Deshaun Watson trade. He went through training camp and was involved with the team, which could change ahead of the regular season next month.


Michael Hall discusses playing for the Browns

Michael Hall just completed his first preseason game as a member of the Cleveland Browns. The player was on the field for the 23-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 1 to open play in 2024.

Here's what he had to say about his first legitimate NFL action:

"Plus, like I was saying, it's just a hell of a feeling... Just happy to rep my city playing in front of thousands of fans...
"It was everything. I just kinda took it all in. Just to get my emotions down and get more comfortable. Going out to the tunnel, saying to myself that I put a lot of work in going into this weekend."

Hall was expected to be a major contributor to the front of the Browns' defense. He is originally from Cleveland, Ohio, and played college for Ohio State. He has expressed that playing for his hometown team is a dream come true, but it's now uncertain due to the arrest.
