Unhappy CB wants to 'go somewhere where I'm wanted'


Falcons cornerback DeAngelo Hall said his chances of ever playing for the team again are "slim to none."

The loquacious, two-time Pro Bowler capped an 11-minute, impromptu news conference in a hallway of the Indianapolis Convention Center on Friday with those three words; a sign off to what could signal an end to his four-year tenure with Atlanta.

"I don't want to stay there," said Hall, one of several current players attending the NFL combine. "I would go anywhere who wants me. That's the thing. It's hard to play for or be part of an organization that doesn't want you. I just want to go somewhere where I'm wanted."

Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff was not immediately available for comment Friday afternoon.

Hall said he felt "betrayed" and that "these guys kind of stabbed me in the back," by saying they wanted to retain him while engaging in trade offers.

"It's not a situation where I'm out here trying to request a trade," Hall said. "That is not the case. The case is these guys are out her trying to trade me. That's what it comes down to."
