Over a distinguished four-year career on The Plains, Hall racked up 19.5 sacks to become a second round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft, and through his three-year career so far has established himself as a key piece of one of the best defenses in football with Seattle.
As he continues to ascend and now is getting paid like one of the better young pass rushers in the league, Auburn fans will continue to root him on and cheer for him from all the way across the country.
