The New York Jets' plan for running back may force a trade of Breece Hall. A recent report by ESPN's Rich Cimini shared first-year head coach Aaron Glenn's plan to have a "running back by committee," meaning that all three would be utilized. That would essentially take away Hall's status and the No. 1 lead RB.

Cimini's report also stated that the Jets might be willing to trade Hall and then possibly draft Boise State standout Ashton Jeanty. This news quickly circulated on social media on Sunday morning, and fans were quick to share their thoughts.

Fans were shocked that Glenn and the Jets would consider this type of plan for the running backs, with some even questioning how that would even be a good idea.

Some fans thought that if the team were willing to trade Breece Hall, then why would they draft another running back, such as Ashton Jeanty, to help? Then there were others that Hall would be traded by the New York Jets and that he could get an opportunity elsewhere.

"Please free him," one fan wrote.
"This guy really doesn't like Hall, why lol," another fan said.

"You don’t trade Breece Hall because you want a RB committee just to draft Ashton Jeanty," said one person.

Some fans on X also insinuated the Jets will never find success if they operate in this type of way. Others encouraged the team to trade Hall and allow him the opportunity he should be getting at nearly 24 years old. It remains to be seen how the next few weeks ahead of the NFL draft will pan out for Hall and the Jets.

"& this is why teams stay at the bottom ! Makes 0 sense !" questioned another person.
"The Jets already ruined Hall’s start in the NFL. Now they want to pursue Jeanty and ruin his—poverty franchise," said another.
"Good! Give Breece a chance to go play for a winning team," another said.

Before trade rumors, Aaron Glenn said Breece Hall was 'in a good place'

Before trade rumors began to run rampant, New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters that Breece Hall was in a good place. Those comments occurred at the annual league meetings in Palm Beach, Florida, last week.

Ahead of making comments about the three running back usage, Glenn said that Hall was doing well mentally after struggling in 2024.

"I think, mentally, he's in a good place," Glenn said.

In 16 games in 2024, Breece Hall rushed 209 times for 876 yards and five touchdowns. He also had 57 receptions for 483 yards and three touchdowns.
