PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Hall Jr. is known for his dense, well-leveraged build, and great proportional length and power capacity. His initial explosiveness and lateral burst are exceptional, allowing him to win quickly in matchups. His agility and motion freedom contribute to his quick recovery abilities. Hall Jr. is extremely proficient at leveraging his explosiveness and length into menacing power, making him a formidable force on the defensive line. However, he does have some areas to improve, such as balance during rush and stunting, hand placement precision, and expanding his pass-rush arsenal. His natural fit would be as a three-technique on an even line with one-gap principles, focusing on agility and speed to generate disruption?.
