Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or Omarion Hampton

Thursday, April 24, 2:12 PM

According to NFL insider Josina Anderson's sources, New York Jets running back Breece Hall could be available via trade. Anderson reports that league sources have heard about the potential of his availability "within the last week and a half." The 2022 second-round pick out of Iowa State posted a career-low 4.2 yards per carry last season, and head coach Aaron Glenn has hinted at New York moving to a committee approach in the backfield. With the 2025 NFL Draft set to kick off on Thursday night, Hall could be a trade candidate during Day 2 or Day 3. The 23-year-old has flashed at times during his three-year pro career, but a change of scenery could help or hurt his fantasy football outlook moving forward. Hall has compiled 2,333 rushing yards, 1,292 receiving yards, and 22 total touchdowns in 40 career games.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie first-round running back Omarion Hampton said on The Jim Rome Show that he believes he and Najee Harris can create "a dominant backfield" in 2025. "We know they're going to run the ball, so I'm loving it," Hampton said. The 22nd overall pick was a workhorse back in college at North Carolina and was incredibly productive for the Tar Heels with 2,033 scrimmage yards in 2024, which was the third-most in the nation. Although he won't be a workhorse immediately for the Bolts while sharing touches with Harris, Hampton should have plenty of fantasy upside immediately in a run-first L.A. offense. He averaged over 175 total yards per game in 12 contests in 2024 and was also the fourth FBS player with 1,500-plus rushing yards and 15-plus rushing touchdowns in back-to-back seasons since 2016.
