Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or Ashton Jeanty

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) said that he's fine and doesn't expect to require additional testing, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. Hall exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 17 loss against the New England Patriots and did not return. His comments seem to indicate that he'll be available for the Jets' Week 18 regular-season finale against the Buffalo Bills. However, given that the Jets have been eliminated from playoff contention, it's possible that they could hold him out to avoid risking further injury. Hall has 1,065 rushing yards, 350 receiving yards, and five touchdowns this season. He has missed just one game over the last three years and is slated to hit free agency in March 2026.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie running back Ashton Jeanty was held to single-digit fantasy points in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the New York Giants in Week 17. Jeanty has been held to 10 or fewer fantasy points in three of his last four games, disappointing fantasy managers in the playoffs. Despite the great matchup, he had a relatively inefficient day, turning his 16 rush attempts into 60 yards and corralling both of his targets for just 13 yards. The rookie ball carrier was the Raiders' workhorse back, with Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) ruled inactive before gametime, but he did cede some third-down snaps to running back Zamir White in the second half. The Las Vegas Raiders will host the reeling Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18, whose defense is a top-10 matchup for opposing running backs. Jeanty still has big play potential and, as the Raiders' bell cow back, should continue to see starting lineups in Week 18.
