John Hall (born March 17, 1974 in Port Charlotte, Florida) is an American football placekicker, who currently is a free agent in the National Football League. He kicked for Port Charlotte High School and played college football at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. While at University of Wisconsin-Madison John played and won three bowl games (Rose, Hall of Fame and Copper Bowls). He signed as a rookie free agent to the New York Jets in 1997.

Hall was troubled by a groin injury for the 2004 season and only appeared in eight games. Before being signed as a free agent by the Washington Redskins in 2003, he played six seasons for the New York Jets. His most accurate season came in 2005, when he converted 12 of 14 field goals for an 85.7% success rate, although his season long was only from 45 yards out. He also missed a crucial field goal, well within his range, in the Redskins' defeat against the Seattle Seahawks. He attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison where he majored in consumer science. Hall's 53-yard field goal with 59 seconds left in the final regular season game against Oakland clinched a 2001 playoff berth for the Jets. Hall missed the last second field goal attempt during the vs. the Minnesota Vikings causing his team a loss. Hall's problems have stemmed from his constant string of injuries. He was placed on the injured reserve list for the 2006 season with a strained groin and a strained quadriceps muscle in his leg. The Redskins released Hall on March 7, 2007.

John is married to his wife Christina and they have 2 children (Brady and Ava). John now owns his own restaurant called John Hall's Goal Post Grill & Sports Bar [ [http://www.goalpostgrill.com John Hall's Goal Post Grill & Sports Bar] ] in his hometown of Port Charlotte, Florida
