The New York Jets are a trainwreck, sitting at a brutal 2-6 after getting stomped by the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8. Seriously, they’re done. Everyone knows they are sellers now, not buyers, and the juiciest name on the trade block is running back Breece Hall. Why? Because Braelon Allen has been absolutely lighting it up while Hall’s been out, making Hall look like a super valuable chip.
Glenn Says NO on Hall Deal
You’d think with Allen’s ridiculous breakout, the Jets would be ready to cash in on Hall, right? Nope. Jets head coach Aaron Glenn just dropped a bomb, straight up shutting down all the trade buzz. ESPN’s Rich Cimini shared Glenn’s take, and it’s crystal clear. Glenn basically said, “Guys, listen, Breece is still a part of this team. I understand how the noise happens when things like this happen. I’ve said it before, we’re in the business of keeping good players and he’s one of our better players. So Breece will still be here.” Talk about putting the rumors to bed! This isn’t some maybe, this is the head coach telling us they plan on keeping their star running back this season, no matter how great Allen has played since stepping up.
Emerald City Eyes on the RB Market
But here’s the thing, even with Glenn’s firm stance, the NFL trade deadline is still ticking. We know Jonathan Taylor from the Colts is drawing a ton of interest from a bunch of teams. If some of those RB-needy squads miss out on Taylor, who do you think they’ll pivot to? That’s right, Hall. And yeah, our very own Seattle Seahawks are on that list of teams, alongside the Denver Broncos, Minnesota Vikings, and New York Giants. The comment from Glenn points to the Jets holding onto Hall, but until that deadline passes, you can’t completely rule out some team rolling in with an “impossible to refuse” offer that changes everything.
Hall is expected to be back on the field for the Jets in Week 9, assuming he isn’t traded. But for now, Glenn’s word means Hall probably stays put. Still, the next week is gonna be wild as teams scramble to make their moves. Keep those eyes peeled, folks.
