New York Jets running back Breece Hall has had a turbulent start to his NFL career. The first ball carrier selected in the 2022 NFL Draft (No. 36 overall) suffered a torn ACL in Week 7 of his rookie campaign after an excellent start. He averaged 5.8 yards per carry and 11.5 yards per reception on 99 total touches. He has flashed upside in his last two campaigns, but New York's offensive environment with Zach Wilson or Aaron Rodgers was not conducive to high-level production, and he's averaged fewer than 4.6 yards per carry since the start of his sophomore campaign. Heading into Year 4, Hall is determined to put his name back in the "high-end" running back discussion. "Just proving that I'm still the guy and still one of the best in the league," Hall said. "Just trying to go out there every weekend and prove that I deserve to be out there." While quarterback Justin Fields has plenty of question marks as a passer, his rushing skill set could open running lanes for Hall behind a potentially improved Jets offensive line. New York's coaching staff has hinted at a split backfield with second-year pro Braelon Allen, but Hall should continue to be viewed as the starter for Gang Green. That said, Fields likely won't target running backs often in the passing game based on his previous trends.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs said new offensive coordinator John Morton wants him "more involved" in the passing attack this year. "I gotta learn the formations for being split out," Gibbs said. "I'm being split out like way more than I was the past two years. That's good. That's going to be fun. I've been waiting on that." In his first two seasons with Ben Johnson as the offensive coordinator, Gibbs caught 104 passes on 134 targets for 833 yards and five receiving touchdowns. In 2024, he spent more time in the backfield than from the slot or out wide compared to his rookie campaign. David Montgomery will still be involved in the Lions' rushing attack, but if the game-breaking Gibbs is used more through the air, it could easily make him the most valuable fantasy RB in 2025. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 3 back, behind only Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson.
