Jets' Breece Hall Reveals Incredible Goal For 2025

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is entering the final year of his rookie deal, and he's got a point to prove.

Coming off a season that saw him bear the brunt of criticism for the Jets' failures and seeing his name thrown up as a trade candidate, Breece needs a big season under Tanner Engstrand.

And he's determined to get it.

Speaking on the Get Got Pod with Marshawn Lynch and Mike Robinson, Breece knows what he can do, and it involves doing something rather eye-popping in 2025.

"I can receive and I can run the ball," Hall said. "For me, it’s not more so rushing the ball, it’s just about my total output because I can be a 1,000-yard rusher and a 1,000-yard receiving back. I feel like for me it’s just more so about me getting my touches, I just need to touch the ball and I feel like whenever I touch the ball I can make a big play out of it."

That is quite the goal.

However, with Aaron Glenn's desire to use all three backs, Hall, Braelon Allen, and Isaiah Davis, Breece likely won't be getting the number of touches needed to hit those marks.

Christian McCaffrey did it in 2019, but he had 287 rushing attempts and 116 receptions (142 targets). Both of those are significantly higher totals than Breece has ever had.

Hall has shown his ability as a genuine pass catcher, but he will be fighting with Allen and Davis for touches. So while Breece wants to show his worth and get ample touches, it might not be his decision.

But if he does, we imagine that a nice contract extension either from the Jets or someone else will be coming his way.
