News: 3 days agoHall (groin) took part in agility drills on the side at Monday's practice, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

Spin: Hall has been sidelined since suffering a minor groin strain at last Monday's session, which was expected to keep him out of drills for 2-to-3 weeks. Considering he was "moving well" this Monday, per Costello, Hall may be ahead of the curve in his recovery. In any case, Hall seems likely to miss Friday's preseason game against the Giants, with the focus instead on Week 1 at Tennessee on Sunday, Sept. 13.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Hall received the franchise tag during the offseason and will return for his fifth season with the Jets. Having worked in the Jets' underwhelming offenses the past two years, Hall has struggled to finishes of 17th and 21st in fantasy points per game among RBs, which is a far cry from top-eight finishes during his first two seasons. Hall has remained busy, however, producing 266-plus touches each of the past three seasons. The 2022 second-round pick saw a dip in receiving work in 2025 (career-low 10% target share) but finished fourth in that category in both 2023 and 2024, so a rebound is possible with pocket QB Geno Smith now under center. Though the Jets' offense might continue to limit Hall's upside, the 25-year-old's combination of workload and talent positions him as a solid RB2.
