Cleveland Browns sign St. Aug's Hall
July 25, 2008
Former Saint Augustine's College star Alex Hall signed a four-year contract with the NFL's Cleveland Browns before reporting to training camp this week in Berea, Ohio.
Hall, the Browns' seventh-round choice in 2008, is the third Saint
Augustine's College player drafted in school history and the first
since the school re-instituted football in 2002. He was the only
player from the CIAA conference selected in the 2008 NFL Draft.
A Division II All-American and All-CIAA player at defensive end, Hall (6-5, 250 pounds) set school records for career sacks (25.5), season sacks (13) and game sacks (4.5).
Hall, a Glenarden, Md. native, is a promising outside linebacker prospect who has a good chance of making the final roster as a pass-rush specialist and on special teams.
