New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 16 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Hall missed practice to begin the week, but is now ready to go for this weekend. He returned to the field last week, but struggled as he rushed nine times for 30 yards in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Possibly, Hall was still dealing with the knee issue last week, so hopefully he'll get more involved this weekend. Fantasy managers should go ahead and consider Hall as a RB2 with the expectation that Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis will still get mixed in.
Breece Hall, Braelon Allen Not Practicing On Wednesday
New York Jets running backs Breece Hall (knee) and rookie Braelon Allen (back) are both sitting out of Wednesday's walkthrough practice and are being evaluated. The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt reports that Hall is further along with his injury than Allen, according to interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich, which means Hall is more likely to play in Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams. Hall did not play in the Week 14 loss to the division-rival Miami Dolphins but was active this past Sunday in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, carrying the ball nine times for 30 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for an extra 21 yards. Allen and Isaiah Davis combined for seven carries. The 23-year-old was not efficient but saved his fantasy day with a TD. He should be able to suit up this Sunday against the Rams, and if he does, he'll be more of a low-end RB2 for fantasy managers.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball nine times for 30 yards and a touchdown while adding two receptions for 21 yards in a 32-25 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 15. Hall, who missed Week 14 with a knee issue, was surprisingly able to play after looking iffy earlier in the week. He found the end zone on a one-yard run in the fourth quarter to break a 25-25 tie and help propel the Jets to victory. He handled nine of 17 running-back handoffs in the contest and, more importantly, appeared to emerge from the game without any setbacks to his balky knee. Hall, who now has eight all-purpose touchdowns on the season, will be a solid fantasy option heading into Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is officially active for the Week 15 game on Sunday on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Hall was a DNP on both Wednesday and Thursday for a knee injury that kept him sidelined for the Week 14 overtime loss to the division-rival Miami Dolphins, but he was able to return and practice in full on Friday. He still carried a questionable tag into Sunday, but he was expected to play, and now it's official that he will be active. Although the 23-year-old back is active, fantasy managers should have some doubt as to whether he'll actually see a normal complement of offensive snaps in the backfield. Last week, the Jets split the touches pretty much down the middle with rookie Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis. A potential lesser role with fewer touches in Week 15 makes Hall more volatile for fantasy as more of an RB3/flex option.
Per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is expected to be active for Sunday's road matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The third-year back injured his knee before Week 11 but was able to get in some rest during the team's bye the following week. However, he re-aggravated the injury in Week 13 against the Seahawks before rattling off three straight DNPs and missing the subsequent contest. Hall kicked off this week labeled as a non-participant on back-to-back days but got in a full session on Friday and appears poised to be ready to go in Week 15. The 23-year-old has had an up-and-down year, but if he's fully healthy, he gets a smash matchup against a Jaguars defense that's allowed the second-most fantasy points per game to running backs in 2024 (28.6). New York may be cautious with the former second-round pick, being that his surgically repaired knee has the issue. Still, if he's active -- it will be hard to sit him in a juicy matchup. Hall is RotoBaller's PPR RB22 in this week's ranks.
Braelon Allen A Low-End Flex Option In Week 15 If Breece Hall Plays
New York Jets running back Braelon Allen failed to capitalize on his increased role with Breece Hall (knee) out of action in Week 14, rushing for only 43 scoreless yards. His time as the team's lead back may be short-lived as Hall is looking likely to return to action in Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars after he logged a full practice on Friday. The Jaguars have struggled against running backs this season, allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to the position. If Hall ultimately ends up being inactive, Allen can be treated as an RB2 in Week 15 but if Hall plays, downgrade Allen to a desperation flex.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) appears to be heading in the right direction ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Hall sat out of last week's game, but is expected to make a return to the field this weekend, according to interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich. Fantasy managers are certainly glad to see this news with many leagues starting their playoffs this week. Hall is expected to be a full-go, assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks before Sunday. Hall should be treated as a strong RB1 against a struggling Jags defense for Week 15.
Breece Hall Questionable For Week 15 But Expected To Play
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is currently listed as questionable ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said that Hall looks good and is expected to play despite him missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday. Hall sat out of last week's game, which resulted in rookie Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis seeing increased playing time. The expectation is that the two of them would split up the carries once again if Hall is unable to play. If Hall is active, as expected, there's a big risk of a reduced workload against the Jags, giving him bust potential.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) was on the field and was carrying his helmet on Thursday for the portion of practice open to the media, but he immediately headed to the rehab area. It indicates that Hall is likely to pick up another DNP for the second straight day. Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich indicated on Wednesday that Hall is still struggling through a knee injury that kept him out of the Week 14 overtime loss to the division-rival Miami Dolphins last Sunday. The 23-year-old hasn't been ruled out for this Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but things aren't looking good for him right now, and fantasy managers should currently be planning to be without him. With Hall out last weekend, rookie Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis essentially split the backfield workload, with Davis finding the end zone. Both RBs would be in play as RB3/flex options against the Jags if Hall is ruled out again.
New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) started off the practice week with a DNP on Wednesday as the team prepares for a Week 15 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Hall sat out of the Week 14 overtime loss to the division-rival Miami Dolphins and his status is up in the air for this weekend as well. Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Hall is "struggling a bit" with his injury, so it would not be a surprise at all if he misses a second straight game. The Jets aren't shutting the 23-year-old down for the season, so fantasy managers in redraft leagues need to hold him. With Hall out in Week 14, both rookie Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis saw over 50% of the snaps on offense, with Allen carrying 11 times for 43 yards and adding four catches for 38 yards. Davis had 10 carries for 40 yards and a score and added three catches for 27 yards. Expect the two to split touches again against the Jags this weekend if Hall is out, making them both RB3/flex options in deeper fantasy leagues.
