After already swinging two jaw-dropping trades on Tuesday, the Jets are attempting to make yet another move leading up to the 3 p.m. CT deadline, veteran insider Jordan Schultz reports. The Jets previously said goodbye to two defensive cornerstones, cornerback Sauce Gardner and lineman Quinnen Williams, in blockbusters with the Colts and Cowboys.
With Gardner and Williams gone, running back Breece Hall wants a trade, per Schultz . Despite Hall’s wishes, expectations are that the Jets will retain him, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
While Hall is due to reach free agency in the offseason, making him a pure rental for an acquiring club, the Jets are requesting a third-round pick in return, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Although contenders like the Chiefs, Chargers, and Patriots have come up as speculative fits for the 24-year-old, no one has met the Jets’ asking price. However, there are offers on the table for Hall, Connor Hughes of SNY relays.
If a Hall trade doesn’t come together, it’s possible the Jets will make an attempt to re-sign the fourth-year man and former second-rounder between now and the offseason. Hall has won over rookie head coach Aaron Glenn, who said in mid-October there were no plans to trade him (there probably weren’t plans to trade Gardner or Williams then either). One of the few bright spots on a 1-7 team, Hall has rushed for 581 yards and two touchdowns on 5.0 YPC this season.
With the Jets seemingly unafraid to part with anyone, Hall will continue to be a name to watch going up to the deadline. The same goes for EDGE rusher Jermaine Johnson, who’s reportedly generating second-round offers.
So they are trading young core pieces, but not a rental like Hall? Lol BS, they want someone to pony up a third rounder.
You’d be right if the Jets were run by a competent FO. But theyre not, so. Im afraid theyre gonna end up stuck with Breece and then they wont extend him lol
They could franchise him but that didn’t work out in the long run for the Giants with Barkley.
Yeah thats my thought is that they would tag him, but hes already cryptic tweeting and tagging him might even have him sit out
I would thrilled to see the Bears GM swing for the fences to trade for Hall.
Free Breece!

“THEY EXPECT TO FIND ONE OF US IN THE WRECKAGE BROTHER”
Hahaha 😂 This is the best comment I’ve seen in weeks!
Lemonade out of lemons… The Jets defense has taken a HUGE step backward, so it will be much easier to score on them, so they won’t be on the field as much going forward… So Breece will have more chances to showcase before free agency!
They are gonna run while down?
Damn. There’s always a flaw in every brilliant plan…
His Madden rating is too high. I’m not joking.
Of course these idiots keep a running back leaving in the offseason.
