Breece Hall

The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt believes the Jets don’t have an “obvious No. 2 option in the passing game” outside of running back Breece Hall.

Reports suggesting Hall could be forced into a three-player backfield this year have swirled for some time, but the Jets’ pass-catching corps is extremely thin behind Garrett Wilson. Hall’s career 1.56 yards per route run trails only Alvin Kamara’s 1.71 (min. 100 targets) during that span. Although Hall could lose some work to Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, Hall would seem to have the strongest resume of the three on third downs. It seems likely that Hall mans the high-value passing-down role, and a top-15 workload could also be well within reach.
