Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or Rachaad White

Sunday, December 28, 5:13 PM

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) said that he's fine and doesn't expect to require additional testing, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. Hall exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 17 loss against the New England Patriots and did not return. His comments seem to indicate that he'll be available for the Jets' Week 18 regular-season finale against the Buffalo Bills. However, given that the Jets have been eliminated from playoff contention, it's possible that they could hold him out to avoid risking further injury. Hall has 1,065 rushing yards, 350 receiving yards, and five touchdowns this season. He has missed just one game over the last three years and is slated to hit free agency in March 2026.

According to head coach Todd Bowles, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White could be given a larger role during their contest against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday afternoon. When asked about White's usage during their loss to the Panthers in Week 16, Bowles noted that he "completely agrees" that White should have been given more rushing attempts, given the success he enjoyed in his limited opportunities. In this contest, White took five carries for 45 yards and two receptions of 15 yards. Over the previous two games, White showed similar upside, tallying 73 yards on 12 rushing attempts. White's eight rushing attempts on Sunday placed him second on the depth chart, above Sean Tucker's four carries and behind Bucky Irving's 19 carries. Given that White seems poised for a larger role in Week 17, managers in deeper 12-team formats could consider him as a viable FLEX play facing a Miami defense that is allowing the eighth-most PPR points to opposing RBs.
