Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or James Cook

Saturday, January 3, 3:26 PM

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's Week 18 matchup with the Bills, effectively ending his season and potentially his time with the Jets. Hall is now scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent and will likely draw a top-of-market deal as the headliner of the running back free agent class. Still only 24 years old, Hall's best football could still be ahead of him, making him an intriguing name in dynasty and a player whose value could skyrocket depending on landing spot. He finishes the 2025 campaign with a career-high 1,065 yards on the ground, along with 350 receiving yards and five total touchdowns.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook was dominant in Week 16's win over the Cleveland Browns, totaling 134 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on just 17 touches. Cook has ascended once again in the 2025 season, jumping from 79.2 scrimmage yards per game in 2024 to 121.3 this season. He currently leads the NFL in rushing yards and ranks RB6 in PPR formats. The Bills host the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 17, who have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to running backs this season. While star defensive tackle Jalen Carter will be active this week for the Eagles, Cook and the Bills are running the ball with ease, so fantasy managers should expect more dominance from the fourth-year back.
