I can’t tell you enough how much my family and I have appreciated the support… Looking forward to the next stage of my football career by officially declaring for the 2023 NFL draft. Thank you, Cougar nation. I’ll always carry this university with me in my heart,” said Hall via Twitter.

Underclassmen are able to request league approval to become eligible for the draft, as are players who have graduated prior to using up all of their collegiate eligibility. 100 underclassmen were approved for last year’s draft. 73 of those 100 underclassmen were granted special eligibility while 27 of them were underclassmen who had completed their college degrees.

The 2023 NFL scouting combine will take place from Feb. 28 through March 6 in Indianapolis.
