Browns DT Mike Hall Jr. ruled out for the 6th straight game, Sunday vs. Steelers

BEREA, Ohio -- Browns defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. has been ruled out for the sixth straight week with his knee injury.

He was the only player on the Browns roster with an injury designation, meaning everyone else is eligible to be active.

The Browns second-round pick in 2024 out of Ohio State, Hall was carted off the field during the season-ending loss to the Ravens last season with a serious knee injury, and underwent surgery.

He’s been inactive the first six games of the season while 2025 No. 5 overall pick Mason Graham and Maliek Collins have started at defensive tackle.

Despite his absence, defense is No. 2 in total yards, No. 1 against the run, and tied for fourth against the pass.

Hall had a rocky start to his NFL career, being suspended the first five games because of a domestic dispute, and missing four games with a knee injury.

In his eight appearances and three starts, he made 14 combined tackles, including three for a loss, six quarterback hits and one sack.
