The Cleveland Browns just finished their first preseason game against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday, and now they are turning their attention to this week’s joint practices with the Minnesota Vikings.
One player who played a lot in the first preseason game was this year’s second-round pick, defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. from Ohio State.
There is a lot to like about Hall on the field, and he could turn into the third-down defensive tackle that can get after the quarterback the Browns have been looking for.
Hall isn’t expected to start this season but will be part of the defensive rotation. However, an incident on Monday night could put all his season plans on hold.
Cleveland Browns Mike Hall Is Expected To Be Arrested
Mike Hall Jr. was involved in an incident on Monday night and is expected to be arrested for a domestic violence dispute, according to Noah Weiskopf, first reported by Zac Jackson.

The Browns can’t seem to stay out of the drama the last few weeks. When everything was going well, the team tried to trade Amari Cooper for San Francisco 49ers star wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. Aiyuk turned down the deal, which made Cooper mad that the Browns wanted to get rid of him, and now they have to deal with the Mike Hall situation.
Cleveland Browns fans reacted on social media, and here are their thoughts.
WHYYYYYY WHYYYYYY
