All Footballguys insights about Breece Hall

PositiveProjectionOct 1, 2026
Breece Hall was the RB11 in half-PPR scoring through Week 3 before sustaining a thigh injury, matching late-second or early-third round draft expectations. Hall already has a 100-yard rushing game and is heavily used as a receiver; his class has been clear since he entered the NFL and should be in the prime of his career. Even if he misses three or four games, 12 games of Hall easily outweigh 16-plus games from any other tailback in these backfields.

Hall shouldn't stop except for injury, but the Jets have undergone enough changes that the context around Hall is again one of the big fantasy questions of the season. His talent remains the same, but the panorama of his role as the main runner has changed due to a recent groin injury. Despite this, Hall has the opportunity to become a protagonist again, and the source suggests giving a RB with Top 15 potential another chance, especially with added discount.
PositiveValueAug 9, 2026
The Jets signed Hall to a three-year, $43.5 million extension with $29 million guaranteed, the fourth-highest average among running backs, signaling organizational confidence. Despite a step-back 2024 season (RB16 finish), Hall's 2023 ceiling showed RB2 production with 1,585 scrimmage yards and 76 catches. The source attributes 2024's decline to the Jets' 29th-ranked offense, not Hall's talent. New QB Geno Smith and coordinator Frank Reich—known for unlocking backs as receivers—should elevate Hall's targets. Hall ranks top-10 among RBs in scrimmage yards, yards per touch, receptions, and receiving yards since entering the league. With an RB14 ADP and Footballguys projection calling for RB12 finish, the source is bullish on Hall hitting the high end of his range in Round 3.

The Jets signed Hall to a three-year, $43.5 million extension with $29 million guaranteed (fourth-highest average among RBs), signaling organizational confidence. Despite a down 2024 season (RB16 finish), the source attributes this to the Jets' 29th-ranked offense, not Hall's talent. Hall ranks top-10 among RBs in scrimmage yards, yards per touch, receptions, and receiving yards since entering the league. New QB Geno Smith and coordinator Frank Reich (known for unlocking backs as receivers) should elevate Hall's target volume. The source's Footballguys projection calls for an RB12 finish, but Hall's RB14 ADP puts him in RB2 territory with upside to hit the high end of his range. The source is willing to bet on Hall in Round 3.
PositiveValueNo date
The Jets signed Hall to a three-year, $43.5 million extension in May with $29 million guaranteed, ranking his $14.5 million average per year fourth among running backs behind Saquon Barkley ($20.6M), Christian McCaffrey ($19M), and Derrick Henry ($15M). This contract signals the Jets' confidence in Hall as a core piece of their rebuild. Hall delivered career highs in carries (243) and rushing yards (1,065) in 2024 with four rushing touchdowns despite the Jets' 3-14 record and 29th-ranked offense (263.6 yards per game). He ranks 10th in scrimmage yards, sixth in yards per touch, sixth in receptions, and fourth in receiving yards among running backs since entering the league despite poor team circumstances. His RB13 Footballguys projection and RB14 ADP suggest low-end RB1 or high-end RB2 value most weeks. Under new offensive coordinator Frank Reich, Hall's usage in the passing game is expected to expand significantly; Reich is known for maximizing running backs' dual-threat capabilities and plans to feature Hall more frequently as a receiver out of the backfield and keep him on the field for third downs. Improved quarterback play with Geno Smith over Justin Fields and additions to the receiving corps should create more space for Hall in the run game. The presence of fellow running backs Braelon Allen, who returns from a knee injury, and Isaiah Davis could be limiting factors for Hall's touches, though Footballguy Jason Wood argues that barring injury, it's hard to foresee a scenario where Hall isn't the most valuable fantasy player on the Jets.
