New York Jets running back Breece Hall is entering the final year of his rookie contract with the team. He is 24 years old and there is no doubt he is the most talented running back on the roster.
With that being said, there is a chance that Hall could be in a running back by committee system in 2025. He has yet to rush for 1,000 yards in his NFL career. What kind of fantasy football year will the Jets starting running back potentially have?
PFF Questions What Kind of Role New York Jets Running Back Breece Hall Will Have In 2025 Fantasy Season
Nathan Jahnke of pro football focus wrote about a fantasy question for each NFL team entering the 2025 NFL season. Well, one of the questions he has was about the potential production of the Jets backfield. Jahnke said,
“The Jets’ backfield remains a rotation: Breece Hall barely played over 50% of New York’s offensive snaps with the starters, despite missing Isaiah Davis.
The Jets had a three-man rotation with one drive with the starters last week. Hall led the way, but Braelon Allen also played on early downs, and Davis consistently played on third downs, as well as an early down. Davis missed this game due to an ankle injury.
Hall again started the game. He typically played two consecutive snaps, while Allen entered the game immediately after. The Jets had five third downs over their two drives with the starters, and Allen was on the field for all five. While Hall ran the ball a little more often, Allen was more effective running the ball.
Hall played 61% of New York’s offensive snaps with the starters. He played at least 69% of the offensive snaps in all but three games last season, and the three games came before he missed time due to injury and two of his first three games back from injury. We can expect that the 61% rate will decrease at least a little bit once Davis is back. While most backfields have a two-man rotation, Hall is expected to be in one of the worst rotations in the league for fantasy purposes. There is uncertainty around the Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans, but there is a chance those could all stabilize to two-man rotations eventually.
Hall’s ADP is RB14, but everything the coaches have said mixed with the Jets’ rotation with the starters makes Hall one of the easiest players to avoid at their current ADP.”
Hall in the preseason has rushed for 35 yards on 10 carries and zero touchdowns. In the 2024 regular season, he rushed for 876 yards on 209 carries and five touchdowns, along with averaging 4.2 yards per carry. Hall also caught 57 passes for 483 yards and three touchdowns, along with averaging 8.5 yards per reception and has been targeted 76 times, in 16 games played.
Even with Allen and others in the backfield, Hall is the most talented running back on the Jets roster. He needs to get 70-75 percent of the carries in the backfield for the upcoming 2025 NFL season.
