The Las Vegas Raiders have decided to release defensive tackle P.J. Hall, the second pick of Jon Gruden’s second tenure with the franchise, according to Ian Rapoport.
It was only last week that Gruden, with no subtly, told the media that Hall came into camp overweight last year and that it was not acceptable at the defensive tackle position.
“P.J. Hall, [Maurice] Hurst, [Arden] Key, those are three guys that we used high draft picks on. Arden has to stay healthy, P.J. Hall, I’m anxious to see where his weight is, he came in overweight last year and at that position that can’t happen.
