Breece Hall of the New York Jets underwent an MRI on September 27, 2026, revealing his quad injury may not keep him out for as long as initially feared. While he will miss Week 4, reports suggest a potential return in one to two weeks rather than three to six. Braelon Allen will take over as the Jets' starting running back during Hall's absence, expected to handle about 70% of the rushing workload. Fantasy analysts recommend Allen as a key waiver wire pickup this week given the increase in his role. A further update on Hall's status is anticipated on September 28.
