Breece Hall Week 3 Outlook - Patriots at Jets

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 21st 2023, 8:57am EDT

The Jets are easing Hall into the season. He's averaged 32% of snaps played with only 7.5 touches per game. His long runs in Week 1 skewed his per-game numbers with 78 total yards per game, but last week was a good reminder of his weekly floor with only nine total yards with six opportunities. Hall ranks fifth in missed tackles forced per attempt and eighth in rate of runs for five or more yards. Hall faces a run defense with the ninth-highest stuff rate, the 12th-lowest missed tackles forced allowed, and the 11th-lowest yards after contact per attempt allowed. The saving grace for Hall could be New England's issues stopping zone runs. They have allowed the third-highest yards per carry to zone runs. The issue for Hall and Dalvin Cook is that New York has moved toward more gap runs this season (Hall 42% zone, Cook 23.5% zone). Week 3 Positional Value: low-floor RB3
