Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or TreVeyon Henderson

The New York Jets will use the franchise or transition tag on impending free-agent running back Breece Hall if they can't get a contract extension done before the March 3 deadline, general manager Darren Mougey told Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. The franchise tag would take Hall off the market completely this offseason, while the transition tag would allow him to receive offers from other teams, but the Jets would have the right to match any offer. The transition tag will save the Jets a little more money and seems like the expected course of action here with the 24-year-old, who had a career-high 1,065 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 243 carries in 16 games in 2025. Hall also added 36 catches for 350 yards and a receiving score. A move out of New York would probably be best for Hall's 2026 fantasy value given their uncertain situation at QB, but there's no questioning that his stock is on the rise as an RB2 going into next season after his strong performance in 2025.

A highly-touted second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson flashed both explosive upside and some reason for concern as a rookie. Across 17 games played, the 23-year-old recorded 1,132 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns on 215 touches, which landed him third in the Offensive Rookie of the Year vote. Henderson also got better as the year progressed, recording 683 of his 911 total rushing yards and eight of his nine rushing touchdowns after Week 8. However, a portion of Henderson's second-half production came with fellow Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson sidelined by injury. Once Stevenson returned down the stretch of the season, New England largely operated with an even playing time split between the two backs. In the playoffs, Stevenson earned 70 touches to Henderson's 35 as the Patriots opted in favor of the more consistent between-the-tackles runner. Both backs are under contract for 2026 and beyond, which means Henderson is unlikely to see a true RB1 workload in the immediate future. Still, his upside as both a rusher and receiver should allow him to maintain his dynasty value after an encouraging rookie season.
