Cleveland Browns rookie defensive tackle Michael Hall Jr. pleaded no contest Thursday to a charge from a domestic altercation earlier this summer.
Hall, 21, entered the plea to the reduced charge of disorderly conduct in Ohio’s Avon Lake Municipal Court. Judge Alison Manning handed him a 30-day suspended jail sentence, a $250 fine and two years of probation.
“I regret this whole situation,” Hall said in court, per Cleveland.com. “I’m getting counseling and trying to better myself.”
Per the website, a protection order between Hall and his fiancee was dropped at the latter’s request last week.
The NFL put Hall on the commissioner’s exempt list last month as a result of the initial charge.
Hall, an Ohio native who played three seasons at Ohio State, was selected by the Browns in the second round (No. 54 overall) of April’s draft.
