Every Friday at 3 p.m. ET, DraftKings Sportsbook analyst Steve Buchanan and NFL guru Meghan Townsley chop up the latest injury news on Injury Report Live! Check out what they have to say about this latest injury to Breece Hall (knee).
Heading into the weekend, Breece Hall ($6,400) was trending in the wrong direction. After missing Week 14’s game in Miami, the running back did not participate in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. However, Jets fans have some reason for optimism after head coach Jeff Ulbrich told the media on Friday that the star rusher “looks good.” New York’s offense desperately needs the third-year pro, who has gained over 1,000 yards from scrimmage this season, so his status will be one to monitor.
Is Hall playing this week? Even if he does go, should fantasy managers start him? Meghan (@mtownsleyy) and Steve (@SBuchanan24) discussed New York’s backfield during Friday’s edition of Injury Report Live:
- This is a terrific matchup for New York’s run game, as the Jaguars are giving up the second-most DK fantasy points to opposing running backs.
- If Hall plays Meghan is going to stay away. There’s a real possibility this turns into a running back committee involving rookies Braelon Allen ($5,400) and Isaiah Davis ($5,000).
- Steve shares that sentiment, as it’s tough to envision the 3-10 Jets feeding a banged-up Hall when they have noting left to play for this season.
