"It just felt right," Hall told WJFK-FM on Monday, . "I feel like I still have a lot to prove. I feel like it was a family, and I wasn't ready to give my family up."
The move comes less than a month after the Redskins in a salary-cap move. The Associated Press, citing a person familiar with the contract, reported that Hall will get approximately $2 million in 2013. That's considerably less than the $7.5 million he initially was on the books for prior to his release.
