Former Pitt running back Darrin Hall was waived by the Cleveland Browns on Monday after the conclusion of the team’s rookie minicamp. However, the Cincinnati Bengals announced they had claimed Hall off waivers on Tuesday, and their rookie minicamp gets underway on May 10.
Hall initially ended up with the Browns after he was not selected in the 2019 NFL draft in April. He concluded his college career by rushing for 1,144 yards and 10 touchdowns and was projected as a potential late-round draft pick by WalterFootball.com and other websites tracking draft developments.
In Cincinnati, Hall joins fellow Pitt product Tyler Boyd, who was selected by the Bengals in the second round of the 2016 NFL draft and became a key figure on the team last season amid star receiver A.
