Jets general manager Darren Mougey was true to his commitment to keep running back Breece Hall in New York, applying the franchise tag before the NFL deadline on Tuesday.
Hall and the Jets have until July 15 to hammer out a long-term contract, which the team said last week at the NFL Scouting Combine was the priority for both sides.
'Ideally, we'd find a way to get a deal done and keep Breece around,' Mougey said last week. 'I think I've said that for the last year since I've got here. Breece is a good player. We want to find a way to keep him around.'
If a contract extension isn't reached, Hall would receive a one-year salary of $14.293 million for 2026.
Hall, 24, rushed for 3,398 yards and 18 touchdowns in his first four seasons since the Jets selected him in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Iowa State. He amassed a career-high 1,065 yards in 2025, becoming the first Jet since 2015 to surpass 1,000 rushing yards. He was retained at the trade deadline despite New York shipping off a number of other top players.
