Jets RB Breece Hall Seeks Key Role Ahead 2025 Season

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is determined to prove himself as the team's lead back in the 2025 NFL season amid significant changes in the Jets' management and roster. Despite a disappointing 2024 season where his production declined due to injuries and a struggling offense, Hall remains confident in his abilities as a three-down back and is motivated by new head coach Aaron Glenn's assurance that he is the team's primary running back. The Jets' shift to a run-heavy offense under new offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand, who comes from a successful rushing background with Detroit, is expected to increase Hall's opportunities, especially alongside the dynamic rushing threat posed by quarterback Justin Fields. Hall faces healthy competition from younger backs Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis but is focused on proving he deserves the majority of the workload. He has adopted a simple, focused mentality to improve his game, emphasizing daily effort and resilience in a fresh team environment. The Jets hope that improved offensive line play and Fields' dual-threat capabilities will help Hall realize his potential and help the team rebound after a 5-12 season.
