According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the New York Jets don't plan on shutting down running back Breece Hall (knee). The Jets technically still have a chance of making the playoffs. However, that isn't expected to happen. As a result, it's possible the team could have a change of heart, especially once New York receives the final nail in the coffin. But with Hall at least out for Week 14, Braelon Allen will serve as the top option out of the backfield versus the Miami Dolphins. The rookie hasn't been a consistent fantasy option during the 2024-25 campaign. Yet, he's shown flashes of promise, giving him credibility as a streaming option against Miami.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's divisional tilt against the Miami Dolphins. Hall was labeled as doubtful on Friday's injury report and was already facing an uphill battle to suit up. As a result, fantasy managers should expect rookie Braelon Allen to operate as the lead option out of the backfield. Allen showed some upside early in the season, averaging a solid 4.5 yards per carry during the first five weeks, but he has struggled since and has averaged a mere 2.8 yards per carry from Week 6 and on. In addition, last weekend the No. 3 option on the depth chart, Isaiah Davis, excelled as a receiver and could see a significant amount of third-down opportunities on Sunday. Fantasy managers should view Allen as an RB2 based on volume but should temper expectations given his poor efficiency. Davis could be a viable RB3 in PPR formats given his receiving skills.
According to Andy Vasquez of NJ Advance Media, New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's divisional tilt against the Miami Dolphins. The star running back was dealing with this knee injury before last weekend's game but was able to suit up. This week, Hall was unable to participate in practice on Wednesday and Thursday and was also not seen during Friday's session. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status over the weekend but should look to find an alternative option as the Iowa State product is facing an uphill battle to play. If Hall cannot play, rookie Braelon Allen would be viewed as a must-start option in all formats, as he will likely take on a hefty workload. Throughout his rookie campaign, Allen has posted a modest 3.6 yards per carry with three scores while operating as the No.2 option. However, he has a favorable matchup against Miami, which has allowed the 13th-most PPR points to opposing RBs this season.
There was no sign of running back Breece Hall (knee) at the portion of practice open to the media on Friday. This is very notable after Hall was held out of practice on both Wednesday and Thursday as the team prepares to take on the division-rival Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium this Sunday. Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich was optimistic earlier this week that Hall would be available in Week 14, but fantasy managers should be pretty worried at this point that he might be inactive this Sunday. Hall played through a questionable tag in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks but played a season-low 62% of the offensive snaps and finished with 12 carries for 60 yards while failing to haul in his only target in the passing game. If Hall is active on Sunday, he could once again play a smaller role in New York's backfield, giving him bust potential. Rookie Braelon Allen is worth a speculative pickup if you're desperate at the position in Week 14 with six teams on bye.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) was not seen on Thursday at the portion of practice open to the media. Hall was also listed as a DNP in the first practice of the week on Wednesday, but interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich sounded optimistic that the team would have Hall available for the Week 14 game this Sunday against the division-rival Miami Dolphins. The 23-year-old played through a questionable tag in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks and played a season-low 62% of the offensive snaps, finishing with only 12 touches. A second straight DNP this week isn't what fantasy managers want to see, as it could mean that Hall will cede more backfield touches to rookie Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis for the second straight week. Hall will need to get back on the practice field on Friday, and even if he does, he could be questionable on the final injury report.
Jets Optimistic About Breece Hall's Week 14 Status
Despite New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) missing the first practice of the week on Wednesday, interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich sounded optimistic about Hall's availability for Sunday's Week 14 contest against the division-rival Miami Dolphins. Hall was listed as questionable for the Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks but ended up playing through his knee injury while playing a season-low 62% of the offensive snaps. It sounds as though the Jets' lead back is on a similar trajectory this week, which shouldn't have fantasy managers thrilled. If Hall has his snaps limited for a second straight week, he could very well disappoint his managers yet again against Miami. The 23-year-old back is the RB12 in half-PPR fantasy points, but fantasy managers that drafted him midway through the first round this year were expecting more. If he plays, he'll be on the RB1/2 borderline against Miami.
Breece Hall Won't Practice To Begin Week 14 Preparation
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday to begin preparation for the Week 14 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Hall is dealing with a knee injury, and interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich is not sure if he will play on Sunday. It's worth noting Hall did not practice on Wednesday last week but still played against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. He registered 12 carries for 60 yards but did not catch a pass. Hall and Braelon Allen fantasy managers should continue to follow Hall's status through the end of the week. The Dolphins have surrendered the 11th-most fantasy points per game to running backs, so either player could be in for a solid day for the last week of the fantasy football regular season.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball 12 times for 60 yards and failed to catch his lone target in a 26-21 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. He also converted a two-point conversion and lost a fumble in the outing. Hall turned in a quiet outing in yet another disappointing loss for the Jets, who led 14-0 after the first quarter. He dealt with a knee injury throughout the week before ultimately taking the field in Week 13, but he surprisingly failed to make an impact in the passing game, an aspect of his game that has carried many of his fantasy performances this season. Hall will look to regroup heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Miami Dolphins.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 13 game against the Seattle Seahawks. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. Hall has appeared in all 11 games so far this season, totaling 632 rushing yards, 401 receiving yards, and six touchdowns en route to ranking as the overall RB10 in fantasy football. Even while ceding some opportunities to rookie Braelon Allen, Hall has remained a top option for the Jets and fantasy managers. He should be started in all leagues as he takes on the Seahawks, who have allowed the eighth-most rushing yards to opposing running backs this season.
