Heading into 2024, Breece Hall was expected to be a focal point of the Jets' offense after nearly hitting 1,000 yards as a sophomore. In the first five games, however, he was almost nowhere to be found, failing to crack even a hundred yards in each of them.

Then, Nathaniel Hackett lost playcalling duties to Todd Downing, who has had a history of run-heavy systems dating back at least to when he was with the Tennessee Titans. And the move paid off – Hall had 113 yards on 18 carries.
