Jets' Breece Hall: Not practicing, deemed week-to-week
Rotowire
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that Hall (thigh) won't practice Wednesday and confirmed the running back is being viewed as week-to-week, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Though Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Monday that an MRI on the quad injury Hall sustained in Sunday's loss to the Lions wasn't as significant as the Jets had feared, the running back appears likely to miss at least one game. Unless Hall is able to fit in some practice activity Thursday or Friday, the Jets will likely officially rule him out ahead of Sunday's contest in Chicago. Hall's expected absence would clear the way for Braelon Allen to serve as the Jets' lead option on the ground, while Isaiah Davis would likely be in store for added work in a change-of-pace role.

Jets' Breece Hall: Viewed as week-to-week after MRI
Rotowire
Hall is considered week-to-week after an MRI on Monday revealed that his thigh injury isn't significant as feared, Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter of ESPN report.
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn shed more light on the severity of Hall's injury when he speaks to the media Wednesday, but the running back seemingly avoided any sort of a major damage to his thigh that would result in an extended stint on injured reserve. However, with Hall being classified as week-to-week, he may be facing an uphill battle to make it back for the Jets' next game Sunday at Chicago. After Hall exited in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Lions, Braelon Allen handled six touches over the Jets' final two possessions. Allen and Isaiah Davis would both be in store for expanded roles if Hall ends up missing any time.

Jets' Breece Hall: Status to be updated Wednesday
Rotowire
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that he won't have an update on Hall's (thigh) status until Wednesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Hall departed Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Lions in the fourth quarter due to a thigh injury, finishing the contest with 13 carries for 32 yards and three catches for 23 yards. The running back will presumably undergo imaging Monday or Tuesday as the Jets look to determine the severity of his injury, and it's possible that the results of his medical tests could be reported before Glenn addresses the media Wednesday, when the team holds its first practice of Week 4. Until more details about his injury are known, Hall should be viewed as questionable for next Sunday's game in Chicago, with Braelon Allen being the next man up in the backfield if Hall can't play.

Jets' Breece Hall: Expected to avoid snap count
Rotowire
Hall (groin) could handle a full workload in Sunday's season opener against the Titans, as Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich said Thursday that "unless [head coach Aaron Glenn] and the training staff give us a rep count, we just go play ball," Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Hall initially received a recovery timetable of 2-to-3 weeks after sustaining a groin strain Aug. 17. Just over three weeks has passed since that date, and Hall practiced without limitations Wednesday, suggesting he has made a full recovery. Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, the latter of whom has been cleared to return from a knee injury sustained during training camp, could factor into the game plan as change-of-pace options, but Hall is expected to lead the Jets backfield and handle his normal workload against the Titans in Week 1.

Jets' Breece Hall: Full participant Wednesday
Rotowire
Hall (groin) was a full participant on Wednesday's practice report, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.
The star running back was a full-go to begin the practice week as Sunday's season opener looms. Hall suffered a groin injury late in camp but has been making good progress to the point that it's been expected that he will be ready for Week 1. Look for Hall to lead the Jets' backfield to begin the campaign.

Jets' Breece Hall: Involved in Tuesday's practice
Rotowire
Hall (groin) was seen taking part in positional drills during Tuesday's practice, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
The Jets won't release their first injury report of the season until Wednesday, but Hall's activity at Tuesday's session offers hope that he might be listed as a full participant. Though Hall had been limited at practice over the past three weeks while nursing a minor right groin strain, the expectation is that he'll be ready to handle a lead role in the backfield during Sunday's season opener versus the Titans.

Jets' Breece Hall: Expected back for Week 1
Rotowire
Hall (groin) is expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 13, Jack Bell of the Jets' official site reports.
Hall is still nursing the groin injury he suffered 17 days ago, but he was originally given a return timetable of 2-to-3 weeks and was spotted running without any noticeable issues on a side field last week. Barring any setbacks, it sounds like Hall should be fine for the season opener. Whether he sees his normal workload is another question, as Braelon Allen has looked the part in practice and during limited preseason action, where he rushed seven times for 48 yards (6.9 YPC) and one touchdown.

Jets' Breece Hall: Works on side Monday
Rotowire
Hall (groin) took part in agility drills on the side at Monday's practice, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Hall has been sidelined since suffering a minor groin strain at last Monday's session, which was expected to keep him out of drills for 2-to-3 weeks. Considering he was "moving well" this Monday, per Costello, Hall may be ahead of the curve in his recovery. In any case, Hall seems likely to miss Friday's preseason game against the Giants, with the focus instead on Week 1 at Tennessee on Sunday, Sept. 13.

Jets' Breece Hall: Will be sidelined 2-to-3 weeks
Rotowire
Hall (groin) will be sidelined for 2-to-3 weeks, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
The groin injury Hall sustained Monday will cost him the rest of the preseason, but if things go as planned, head coach Aaron Glenn anticipates he will be ready for the start of the regular season. Hall's absence will afford Braelon Allen -- and presumably Isaiah Davis (knee) if healthy -- more reps with the starters over the remainder of camp.

Jets' Breece Hall: Will watch practice Tuesday
Rotowire
Hall (groin) was in attendance for Tuesday's practice, though he wasn't in uniform and was observing the session off to the side, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Hall exited Monday's session early after sustaining a right groin strain, an injury that the Jets believe to be a minor concern that won't threaten his availability for the team's Week 1 game against the Titans. While Hall is probably at least a week away from mixing back into drills, his presence at practice seemingly supports the notion that he's not in line for a long-term absence. With Isaiah Davis also having been sidelined for the past week due to a minor knee injury, Braelon Allen should be in line for the bulk of the reps with the Jets' first-team offense in practice until Hall makes his return to the field.

Jets' Breece Hall: Groin strain is considered 'minor'
Rotowire
The follow-up on the groin injury Hall sustained Monday confirmed that the injury is minor, according to Connor Hughes of SNY.tv.
Hughes notes that the Jets will be cautious with the running back, suggesting that Hall may be more week-to-week than day-to-day. However, Hughes did add that all indications are that the Jets' top back will be available for Week 1 action. As a result, Hall's status will need to be monitored closely ahead of the team's Sept. 13 season opener against the Titans. With Isaiah Davis managing a knee injury, Braelon Allen figures to see added first-team RB reps in the coming days.

Jets' Breece Hall: Set to operate as bellcow
Rotowire
Hall is expected to be featured more prominently as the Jets' lead back this season, Connor Hughes of SNY.TV reports.
Hall signed a three-year, $45.75 million contract with the Jets in May, and it now appears as if the 25-year-old's offensive snap share will go up in his fifth campaign with the team. The running back's usage peaked at a 67.5 percent offensive snap share in 2024 before dropping down to 61.1 percent in 2025. With the heightened expectations for Hall, Braelon Allen is set to operate as a clear No. 2 option while Isaiah Davis will play third fiddle in the backfield this year.

Jets' Breece Hall: Lands three-year extension
Rotowire
The Jets and Hall (knee) agreed to terms on a three-year, $45.75 million contract Friday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
With an average annual value of $15.25 million on the deal, Hall becomes the third-highest paid running back in the NFL behind the Eagles' Saquon Barkley ($20.6 million) and the 49ers' Christian McCaffrey ($19 million). Despite being in mostly dreadful offenses in four seasons since the Jets selected him in the second round of the 2022 Draft, Hall has averaged 1,453 yards from scrimmage and 7.3 touchdowns per year over the last three campaigns. He even put together the first 1,000-yard season on the ground of his career (1,065, to be exact) in 2025. Moving forward, Hall will remain the engine of New York's offense.

Jets' Breece Hall: Officially gets non-exclusive tag
Rotowire
The Jets officially placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on Hall (knee) on Tuesday, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.
It was initially reported that New York would place the franchise tag on Hall, but the non-exclusive variation allows the running back to negotiate with other teams. The Jets will retain the right to match any offer and be entitled to two first-round picks as compensation from any team he signs with, a prohibitive enough cost to make any such deal unlikely. Still, Hall's ability to negotiate with other teams could open up trade possibilities in the event that he isn't able to reach terms on a long-term extension with the Jets by the July 15 deadline.

Jets' Breece Hall: Return to NYJ in play for UFA
Rotowire
Jets GM Darren Mougey said at Tuesday's end-of-season press conference that the team would like to retain Hall (knee) but wouldn't go into specifics regarding whether the Jets are open to using the franchise tag on the pending unrestricted free agent, Antwan Staley of the New York Daily News reports.
Hall sat out the Jets' regular-season finale due to a knee injury after posting a career-high 1,065 rushing yards across the previous 16 games. The versatile playmaker has accrued 5,040 yards from scrimmage in 56 regular-season games since being selected in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, but Hall has yet to get a taste of NFL postseason action. Hall's likely to have a robust market in free agency, but the Jets could try to bring him back for his age-25 season on the franchise tag if Hall isn't interested in a long-term extension to stay in New York.

Jets' Breece Hall: Questionable for Sunday
Rotowire
Hall (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's season finale against the Patriots after practicing in a limited fashion Friday.
After logging a 'DNP' on Wednesday, Hall was limited both Thursday and Friday before being deemed questionable for Week 18 action. If the Jets' top running back is unavailable for Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, Kene Nwangwu and Khalil Herbert would be next up for the team's carries, with Isaiah Davis (concussion) ruled out for the contest.

Jets' Breece Hall: Stymied in Week 15 loss
Rotowire
Hall rushed 12 times for 23 yards and caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.
Hall seemed bothered by the knee injury that cut into his practice participation during the week, and he was held to 44 or fewer rushing yards for the third time in four games. Isaiah Davis was the Jets' most effective running back in this lopsided loss, with a 24-yard touchdown run among his 58 rushing yards on nine carries. Hall's inching closer to the 1,000-yard mark on the ground, as he'll need exactly 100 rushing yards to get there in Week 16 at New Orleans.
