The New York Jets will visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 3. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Breece Hall.
Is Breece Hall Playing in Week 3?
Hall is not on the injury report and is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Jets’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Breece Hall in Week 3?
Breece Hall came storming out of the gates in Week 1’s loss to the Steelers (145 yards on 21 touches), but running room was a little tough to come by (10 carries for 29 yards against the Bills).
Hall’s true value is going to sit somewhere in the middle of those two performances, though I do worry that we are looking closer to the latter than the former with New York a seven-point underdog.
The Justin Fields situation looms and if the dual threat QB sits as expected, Hall will fall down a bit in my rankings. Tyrod Taylor holds a similar skill set to Fields, but the backup is now 36 years of age and wouldn’t open up the same running lanes.
It would appear that the threat of Braelon Allen isn’t something we need to sweat right now and with this role in hand, Hall won’t fall outside of my top 20 at the position this week.
