NFL news: Jets take heat from running back


NEWNow you can listen to Pak Gazette articles!

New York Jets running back Breece Hall appeared to take a subtle swipe at the team on Monday when the franchise reportedly reached agreements with multiple defenders at the start of free agency.

The Jets placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on Hall last week, preventing him from becoming a restricted free agent. Hall is allowed to negotiate with other teams and sign an offer sheet, but the team has the right of first refusal.

When free agency began, Hall noticed the team agreeing to deals with defenders.

The Jets have reportedly acquired Miami Dolphins defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick, who will sign a three-year, $40 million contract with the team. New York also signed linebacker Demario Davis to a two-year, $22 million contract and defensive end Joseph Ossai to a three-year, $36 million contract, according to multiple reports.

“Damn, we sure have a lot of money in Florham Park with all these contracts guys signing,” Hall wrote on X with three crying-laughing emojis.

The two sides have until July 15 to reach a long-term agreement. If they can’t reach an agreement by then, Hall will play the 2026 season with a salary cap hit of $14.293 million.

Hall rushed for 1,065 yards and four touchdowns last season in 16 games. He also had 36 receptions for 350 yards and a touchdown for a 3-14 Jets team.
