Hall's 3.2 yards per carry and Allen's 194-yard performance suggest a shared backfield.

Breece Hall is closer to no panic than total panic, but there is some concern about his workload upon return. Braelon Allen has looked outstanding in Hall's absence, carrying 41 times for 194 yards across Weeks 5-6. J.J. McCarthy still expects Hall to be the lead back when healthy, and Aaron Glenn has said Hall remains the starter. Hall's receiving ability (10 catches for 102 yards across three appearances, averaging 20.3 touches) gives him another way to produce. However, Glenn has discussed sharing responsibilities, and Allen has earned a role. Hall's 3.2 yards per carry before the injury don't give much reason to assume New York will immediately return every rushing opportunity to him. The panic lives in Allen keeping enough work to lower Hall's ceiling, not in Hall losing the starting job.
