Jets to Feature Breece Hall More Prominently in 2026

Sunday, August 9, 6:10 PM

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is expected to be featured more prominently as the team's lead back this season. After signing Hall to a four-year contract extension this summer, the Jets plan to build their workload around him, with Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis working behind him. In his fourth season, Hall had 243 carries for 1,065 yards and four touchdowns, along with 36 receptions for 350 yards and one touchdown. His receiving workload saw a massive dip last season, falling from over 4.75 targets per game to just three in 2025. Hall will need to be a major factor in the passing game alongside quarterback Geno Smith to reach his current ADP.

Luther Burden III Putting in Pre-Game Work

Saturday, August 15, 6:48 AM

The Chicago Bears face the Cleveland Browns in a Saturday afternoon tilt to open their preseason slate, and while second-year wide receiver Luther Burden III (groin) will not take part as he recovers from the groin injury that has held him out of the last week of practices, he was spotted putting in some light work before the game. Without overexerting himself, Burden was seen jogging about 30 yards before slowing to a walk into the end zone. The 22-year-old is not expected to make any preseason appearances, but the team remains hopeful he will be available for the regular-season opener against the Panthers on September 13. Prior to the injury, Burden had generated significant training camp buzz and projects to be a focal point of the Bears' offense in 2026.
