The New York Jets are officially placing the franchise tag on star running back Breece Hall, according to Tom Pelissero and The Insiders. The move ensures that one of the league's most productive offensive weapons remains tied to the roster for the 2025 season while the organization seeks a more permanent solution.
The one-year tender for Hall is worth $14.293 million. By applying the tag before the league deadline, the Jets now have until July 15 to negotiate and finalize a long-term contract extension with the running back. If no deal is reached by that date, Hall will be required to play the season under the fixed one-year salary provided by the tag.
Hall has been a cornerstone of the New York Jets offense, and this move highlights the team's priority in maintaining their core talent. The front office will now focus on the July window to provide Hall with the long-term security he seeks while managing the team's salary cap structure.
