Browns: Michael Hall Jr. ‘happy to rep’ Cleveland in first NFL game

The first preseason game of the year is now in the books for the Cleveland Browns as they lost to the Green Bay Packers 23-10 on Saturday. Michael Hall Jr., who is from Cleveland, took the field for the first time in his hometown and talked about it after the game.

Hall talked about how it was everything to him and how he had to get his emotions down and do his thing on the field. It wasn’t a super productive game for Hall, who finished with just one tackle, but getting his first professional snaps under his belt will help him settle into his rookie year.

The former Ohio State star will play a role with the Browns as a rookie and has shown flashes of his ridiculous explosiveness and athleticism in camp so far. Next, the Browns will have joint practices with the Minnesota Vikings this week before facing them in their second preseason game next weekend.
