Jets RB Braelon Allen is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars with a back injury. His absence leaves the backfield to Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis.
Update: Allen returned in the third quarter.
Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Jaguars. He was listed as questionable but was a full-go in Friday’s practice. And there was optimism about his status throughout the weekend. We’d still be surprised if Hall handled his normal workload for a Jets team with nothing to play for. Remember that Hall tallied just 12 carries and one target playing through this knee injury back in Week 13. He checks in as a low-end RB2 in the Week 15 Rankings.
Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is expected to play vs. the Jaguars on Sunday, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. "Looks good ... promising," interim HC Jeff Ulbrich said of Hall's Week 15 status on Friday. Hall did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, so it's safe to assume he's still not at 100%. We're frankly surprised that the Jets would play Hall in this meaningless game -- and would be even more surprised if he handles a big workload. Hall tallied just 12 carries and one target playing through this knee injury back in Week 13. Consider him no better than a risky RB2 in Week 15 fantasy lineups, despite the plus matchup. Hall's return knocks RBs Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis out of consideration.
Update: Hall is listed as questionable but was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Jets interim HC Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday that RB Breece Hall is "struggling a bit" with his knee injury. “Maybe it’s not improving as much as he’d like, at this point," Ulbrich added. "We’ll see how it goes this week.” We'll keep you posted on Hall's progress over the next few days, but fantasy owners should not be counting on him playing in a meaningless game vs. the Jaguars on Sunday. RBs Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis split work almost right down the middle with Hall out last week.
The Jets are not planning to shut down RB Breece Hall (knee), ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. It's still unclear when Hall might be ready to return from what's been reported as hyperextension and MCL issues in his previously surgically repaired left knee. We'll track his practice participation this coming week, as well as what the Jets' backfield looks like with rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis today.
Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. He's dealing with a hyperextension and MCL issue in his left knee, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. That's the same knee in which Hall tore the ACL in October 2022. We haven't heard a timeline for Hall's return, but it's possible that the 3-9 Jets just shut him down for the season. He's worth keeping stashed on all fantasy rosters for now, but Hall owners should be prepping to be without him beyond just this week.
Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. It looks like he made the knee injury worse playing through it last week. We'll see if Hall misses time beyond Week 14 for a Jets team that's just playing out the string on the season. Hall's absence this weekend leaves the backfield to rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis. Allen is a good bet to lead in carries, but this Jets coaching staff seems to like what Davis has given them lately. He could be more involved than expected.
Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. That's a downgrade from last week, when Hall was limited on Thursday. He's not a lock to play vs. the Dolphins this weekend. Hall's absence would leave Braelon Allen as the Jets' likely lead back, with Isaiah Davis as the No. 2. Check back tomorrow for another update on Hall.
Jets RB Breece Hall entered Sunday's game questionable with a knee issue and finished the loss to Seattle with his smallest playing-time share of the season. Hall played 61.8% of the offensive snaps, marking just the second time all year that he played less than 70%. Hall had played 74-87% in each of the previous seven games.
Jets fourth-round rookie RB Braelon Allen "has been one of the biggest standouts during OTA practices," according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Rosenblatt calls Allen the "clear frontrunner" for the No. 2 job behind Breece Hall, "especially because of his emergence as a legitimate option as a pass-catcher. That's especially noteworthy for Allen, who got little credit for his receiving ability coming out of Wisconsin. He totaled 49 catches across three starting seasons and averaged a mere 5.6 yards per catch.
The Jets selected South Dakota State RB Isaiah Davis in Round 5 of the NFL Draft. If you value productive RBs, Davis is your guy. Across four seasons at South Dakota State, the 218-pounder racked up 677 carries, 4,552 yards (6.7 YPC) and 50 TDs. He hit 1,400+ rushing yards in his junior and senior seasons. Now, the heavy workloads might be some cause for concern long-term. He missed eight career games across 2021-2022 – all with a shoulder. Davis didn’t miss time last fall, though, and the tape is undeniably impressive. The Missouri native runs hard at nearly 220 pounds, yet he moves like a satellite back. ESPN analyst Louis Riddick said Davis has “vision and feet/jump cut skills as good as any runner in [the] draft.” The 22-year-old earned every yard, too. Per PFF, Davis ran into heavy boxes (7+ defenders) on ~82% of his carries. That mark led the class – along with his 6.6 yards per carry in such situations. Davis isn’t a zero in the passing game, but he lacks reliable hands and a developed route tree. He joins fourth-round rookie Braelon Allen in the Jets’ backfield, behind Breece Hall. It’s a rough spot for Davis’ dynasty value.
