Breece Hall Still Considered Week-to-Week

Wednesday, October 7, 8:48 AM

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) is still considered week-to-week, head coach Aaron Glenn told Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Hall missed the Week 4 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday due to a quad injury, and the 25-year-old is trending toward missing a second straight contest this weekend when the Jets take on the visiting Cleveland Browns. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on Hall's practice status from Wednesday to Friday, though. If he misses a second straight game in Week 5, backup Braelon Allen would once again be at least on the flex radar in fantasy football as New York's primary ball-carrier. With Hall out last weekend, Allen played all but two of the team's offensive snaps and saw a season-high 14 rushing attempts for 59 yards while also catching both of his targets for eight yards as a receiver. If Hall returns to face the Browns, he will be extra risky as an RB2 who is in danger of losing key backfield touches to Allen. After his first 1,000-yard season in 2025 and a big contract extension in the offseason, Hall has averaged just 3.2 yards per carry for 163 yards and one touchdown on the ground through three games in 2026.

Kenneth Walker Dominates in Week 4 Win

Sunday, October 4, 5:30 PM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker had a monster game in his team's 30-27 Week 4 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, recording 22 carries for 177 yards and two touchdowns. The 25-year-old's big day against Las Vegas is a continuation of what's been an electric start to his first season in Kansas City. Across four games, Walker has recorded 537 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 87 carries. He's also been effective as a receiver out of the backfield, logging 12 catches for 84 yards and two scores on 19 targets. Walker battled injuries and a split backfield during his time as a member of the Seattle Seahawks over the previous four seasons. However, he appears to be the Chiefs' workhorse back. If Walker can stay healthy, he could be poised for a league-winning fantasy campaign in 2026.
