There are no details yet as far as what transpired ahead of Hall being arrested or how it might impact his standing with the Cleveland Browns.

Cleveland is coming off of an 11-6 season in 2023. The Browns suffered a disappointing 45-14 loss in the wild card round of the playoffs last season.

Cleveland is led by head coach Kevin Stefanski, who has made the playoffs twice in four years with the Browns. Prior to coming to Cleveland, Stefanski was the offensive coordinator for the Minnesota Vikings.

Veteran Joe Flacco was the starting quarterback for the Browns down the stretch last season, including in the playoff matchup against the Houston Texans.

However, Deshaun Watson is now healthy and will resume his role as the Browns starting quarterback in 2024. Watson appeared in six games last season, passing for 1,115 yards and seven touchdowns. He also rushed for 142 yards and a score, before being lost for the season due to the injury.
