Jets give running back Breece Hall a 3-year, $45.75M extension
ESPN6 h ago
The deal averages $15.25 million a year; the first two seasons are guaranteed and the third includes triggers tied to usage thresholds, sources said. Hall ran for more than 1,250 yards last season and averaged 4.7 yards per carry.
The Jets' offensive coordinator said Hall's reliability in play-action combinations was decisive in the negotiations. Pending extension talks for a right-side offensive lineman are the critical missing piece in shaping the team's 2026 salary cap.
The move is a notable counter-signal in a league that has lately shied away from investing in running backs. The NFL's regular-season schedule release on Thursday will clarify the Jets' opening run of fixtures.
