Latest takes
“Breece Hall suffered a groin strain earlier this month and was initially expected to miss 2-3 weeks. The encouraging part is that the Jets and their trainers continue to believe he’ll be ready for Week 1.”
Ryan Kirksey· Aug 29“Breece Hall suffered a groin injury in the middle of August, and Aaron Glenn gave a 2-to-3 week timetable for his return . Hall, barring a setback, will be ready for Week 1. #Jets Breece Hall – Groin.”
Josh Shepardson· Aug 28“Breece Hall , same team and year, averaged 18.0.”
Samuel DiSorbo· Aug 25

“Breece Hall (RB – NYJ) | ADP: 32.7 Overall (RB17) I understand the reluctance to draft Breece Hall in the first couple of rounds, but let’s not forget just how good he is. Even in a putrid Jets offense last year, Hall managed to clear 1,000 yards rushing.”
Chad Workman· Aug 25“Breece Hall’s reception totals have declined every season, but I’m hoping that with more consistent quarterback play from Geno Smith and more weapons at the receiver and tight end positions, his usage will be much better in 2026. Still, Hall did turn 243 carries and 36 catches into more than 1,400 total yards.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 23“You could also add a running back such as Breece Hall or Jeremiyah Love .”
Tom Strachan· Aug 11“De’Von Achane , Breece Hall, and Kenneth Walker”
The FF Newsletter· Aug 6“9 | Diff: +2 Breece Hall had a tough time last year despite finishing as the RB20 in fantasy points per game.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 5“30 overall, giving him strong enough draft capital to matter, yet a crowded offense with Garrett Wilson, Kenyon Sadiq, and Breece Hall points more toward a complementary early role than instant target dominance.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 30“Gamers are still operating with one foot in and the other out on Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson, but the upside potential is still on the table.”
Rich Hribar· Jul 23“Breece Hall (NYJ) — ECR: RB16 | Projection Rank: RB13 | Projected FPTS: 229.8 Breece Hall had a tough time last year despite finishing as the RB20 in fantasy points per game. New York’s quarterback play was dreadful, and the offense overall was a mess, which led to them ranking 29th in points per game and red zone scoring opportunities per game.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 22“Hall should see an increase in targets, especially considering Ashton Jeanty saw 69 targets with Smith under center for the Raiders last season. If Hall sees more opportunities in the passing game, his receiving role alone justifies taking him in the dead zone.”
Kyle Zeigler· Jul 20“Specific round targets mentioned include Breece Hall and Javonte Williams in round three, and Cam Akers and David Montgomery in round four, with DeAndre Swift as a round five option.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 18“With Geno Smith commanding the offense, this may be the most stable quarterback Hall has played with in his young career. That said, we are also coming off a horrific season for Smith with the Raiders in 2026.”
Ellis Johnson· Jul 17“Do keep that in mind when you draft Wilson and Hall because if you are aiming for ceiling, you might airball.”
Colt Williams· Jul 13
“Justin Jefferson (WR – MIN) | ADP: 11.8 (WR6) While he has been a fantasy superstar since entering the NFL, Justin Jefferson is coming off a massively disappointing season.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 29“Justin Jefferson (WR – MIN) Condolences if you rostered Justin Jefferson in 2025. According to our data, Jefferson teams had a 3.54% win rate in 2025. That level of return stings and isn’t something fantasy managers forget in a hurry, but there are reasons for optimism in 2026.”
Tom Strachan· Aug 28“Justin Jefferson (WR – MIN) Finishes Outside the Top 20 Wide Receivers The prediction: Jefferson, currently going as a top-six receiver, finishes this season outside the top 20 at his position. This is partly a skepticism play on his new starting quarterback’s fit in this specific offense, particularly real questions about accessing the middle of the field effectively. Even last year, on a per-route basis, Jefferson already graded as only a fringe top-15 to top-17 receiver in efficiency metrics, not a true elite option, once poor quarterback play is set aside.”

“Justin Jefferson failed to live up to his ADP, while Jordan Addison couldn’t be trusted with anyone but Wentz starting. The veteran averaged 7.5 targets and 16 PPR fantasy points per game during the four contests he played with Wentz, totaling 15.1+ points in all but one outing.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 25“Justin Jefferson (WR – MIN) | Under 1,376 Receiving Yards & 293.71 Fantasy Points As is the case with Drake London, Justin Jefferson finds himself in a quarterback situation where neither candidate is particularly promising. Kyler Murray is by far the more reliable option over J.J.”
Steve Krebs· Aug 25“Round 3: Justin Jefferson (QB – MIN) I feel great about Justin Jefferson this season with Kyler Murray as his quarterback.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“Round 12: Jauan Jennings (WR – MIN) Jauan Jennings enters a crowded offense with Justin Jefferson , Jordan Addison and T.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“Brown , Jaxon Smith‑Njigba , Justin Jefferson and CeeDee Lamb all provide stable weekly production because their offenses run directly through them.”
Lawrence Iacona· Aug 19“Jefferson has been a fantasy superstar since he entered the NFL. Unfortunately, the veteran is coming off a massively disappointing season, finishing last year as the WR21, averaging 11.9 PPR fantasy points per game despite finishing seventh in the league with 141 targets.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 15“With a better quarterback, Justin Jefferson is a top-five pick, but with J.J. McCarthy ‘s past poor play and the uncertainty of Kyler Murray , we get a discount on one of the best wide receivers in the league.”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 14“Last year, Jefferson was still sixth in target share (28.5%) and seventh in first-read share (35.1%), so we should all expect the Minnesota passing attack to run through their alpha wide receiver again in 2026.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 14“Last year, Justin Jefferson had a horrible runout as the WR28 in fantasy points per game (WR14 in expected fantasy points per game). Obviously, a ton of his season was impacted by the level of quarterback play, but Jefferson also slid to 36th in separation score and 38th in route win rate (among 109 qualifying receivers, per Fantasy Points Data).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 14“Justin Jefferson is the fifth-best wide receiver in the Madden universe, apparently”
The FF Newsletter· Aug 6“Tate isn’t entering the NFL with the pedigree of a Ja’Marr Chase or Justin Jefferson , for example, but his combination of age, draft capital, and college production is extremely appealing”
Ryan Kirksey· Aug 6“Having Justin Jefferson , Jordan Addison , and Jauan Jennings at your disposal is an embarrassment of riches”
Kyle Zeigler· Aug 6
