Overview
- Hall has missed three straight games with a quadriceps injury and did not practice on Wednesday before Week 7, though coach Aaron Glenn said he is not ruling Hall out for Sunday.
- Hall posted an Instagram story captioned “Soon,” which suggests a possible return but does not substitute for a medical clearance or an official activation decision.
- Braelon Allen has stepped into a lead role during Hall’s absence, posting top marks in recent weeks for yards after contact, missed tackles forced and runs of 10-plus yards according to SumerSports and PFF.
- If Hall is active this week he would likely face a reduced role after a three-week layoff, making him a risky RB2 or flex for fantasy managers and raising a real chance Allen keeps most early-down snaps.
- The Jets must balance Hall’s three-year, $43.5 million contract and roster rules that affect injured players with the on-field momentum Allen has built, so the team’s touch-splitting decision and any IR move are the key next items to watch.
