Jets list Breece Hall inactive again as Braelon Allen leads vs Miami

Jets running back Breece Hall is inactive Sunday against the Dolphins, the team's inactive list showed about 90 minutes before the 1 p.m. ET kickoff at MetLife Stadium. Underdog NFL listed the reason as his quad injury, and Jets beat writer Rich Cimini confirmed the move.

This is another missed game for Hall, who also sat out the Jets' Week 6 game against New England with the same quad problem. Pro Football Talk counts this as his third straight inactive game, and RotoWire counts it as his fourth straight absence. Either way, the injury has now lingered for most of a month without a clear return date.

What's confirmed

Hall is on the inactive list for Week 7. The Jets also listed Jarvis Brownlee Jr., Kene Nwangwu, Joseph Ossai, Max Mitchell, Dylan Parham and Jack Heflin as inactive. Braelon Allen stays the lead back for the Dolphins game, according to RotoWire.

How the backfield has looked without him

Allen has handled the job well enough to hold it. Over Hall's earlier absences he averaged 18.3 carries, 84.3 rushing yards, 1.7 catches and 11.3 receiving yards per game, per RotoWire. Miami comes in winless but has held running backs to 4.0 yards per carry, so this is a steadier matchup on the ground than the record suggests.

What RSO owners should do now

If Hall is in your lineup, swap him out before the 1 p.m. lock. A zero from an inactive starter is the one loss you can still prevent this morning.

Allen should be in lineups as a volume RB2. The workload has been consistent, and the Jets have no reason to change it today.

In dynasty and contract leagues, don't panic-sell Hall. The Jets have not described the quad injury as season-ending, and selling him now means taking the lowest price you'll see. If you own Allen, his value as a cheap running back contract is up, so listen to offers that treat him as a starter.

What to watch next

Watch the Jets' Wednesday practice report. A limited session for Hall would be the first real sign he is close. Another missed practice week would push this toward a longer absence and make Allen's role look less temporary.
