Breece Hall missed practice Thursday for the second straight day with a quadriceps injury and could miss the Jets’ Week 5 game against the Cleveland Browns, according to multiple reports. The Jets host the Browns on Sunday, October 11.

What happened

Hall did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, and coach Aaron Glenn said the running back will continue to be evaluated on a weekly basis. Hall was also listed as did not practice in both sessions. The Jets may be without Hall and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell, who is also dealing with an injury.

Context

Hall has 42.5 PPR points in three games this season, with 51 carries for 163 rushing yards and one touchdown, plus 10 receptions for 102 yards. His snap share is 57%. He missed Week 4 against the Bears with the same quad injury.

Timeline

  • October 3: Hall was ruled out for Week 4 against the Bears with a quad injury.
  • October 7: Hall did not practice Wednesday with a quad injury.
  • October 8: Hall did not practice for the second straight day.

Depth chart

Braelon Allen is the top running back on the Jets’ depth chart. Allen has 25.9 PPR points in four games, with 33 carries for 120 yards and one touchdown, plus six receptions for 19 yards. He is projected for 15.2 PPR points in Week 5. Isaiah Davis is another option with 1% snap share.

What’s next

The Jets host the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, October 11. If Hall cannot play, Allen would likely see an expanded role.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Breece Hall’s continued absence from practice puts his Week 5 status in serious doubt after he was already missed Week 4. Fantasy managers should plan as if he will not play. Braelon Allen becomes a strong flex option and borderline RB2 against the Browns. Allen has been productive in a limited role, averaging 6.5 PPR points per game, and his Week 5 projection of 15.2 points suggests a full workload is expected. Isaiah Davis is not a recommended add outside of deep leagues. If Hall ends up active, he remains a must-start, but his limited practice time makes him a risky play.
