Overview
- On Sunday Hall was tackled near the goal line, grabbed his outer thigh, received sideline treatment and was ruled out for the rest of the Week 3 game after finishing with 13 carries for 32 yards and three catches for 23 yards.
- Reports on Monday said the MRI delivered better-than-feared results and multiple NFL insiders labeled the injury week-to-week, a designation that makes a return at Soldier Field in Week 4 improbable.
- Jets head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters the team will provide a fuller medical update on Wednesday, so an official timeline depends on that evaluation.
- Braelon Allen replaced Hall immediately and is expected to assume the lead-back role while Hall is sidelined, with Isaiah Davis available behind him and fantasy implications for both backups.
- Hall’s role as the Jets’ primary offensive weapon and his recent contract extension raise the stakes of any missed time, and his absence compounds New York’s offensive-line and personnel issues that have hampered its run game.
