The New York Jets might not say that they’re in a rebuilding period, but when your potential #2 wide receiver is Josh Reynolds or Allen Lazard then it’s hard to say that you aren’t in a rebuilding period all the same. As part of that, the Jets may think the best moves for the future of the team are to trade some fan favorites for future draft capital.
One player that may be on that list is running back Breece Hall, at least according to Tony Pauline, whose apparent sources have been correct before. In Pauline’s recent article, he wrote the following:
Several players have a lot riding on the line, starting with running back Breece Hall. This is nothing new, as there was speculation the Jets would trade the fourth-year veteran, who looked like a star in the making as a rookie, this past offseason.
People close to the situation speculate that the Jets could move Hall by the trade deadline, then move forward with Braelon Allen, as well as Isaiah Davis and eventually draft a running back in 2026. Allen, a second-year back who was a fourth-round selection in 2024, surprised everyone last season and played beyond expectations.
While this would be a bit unexpected, it apparently would be welcome by at least a subset of Jets fans based on recent calls for Hall’s play time to be reduced.
What do you all think? Is Breece a player that should be considered a building block or a trading block?
