Jets RB Breece Hall strains groin; Glenn says 'not a big deal'

The New York Jets got a scare at Monday's practice. Starting running back Breece Hall suffered a strained groin and left the field with trainers, head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed. Glenn told reporters the initial belief is that it is "nothing serious," adding, "I don't think it was a big deal."

Hall will undergo further testing to determine the severity and whether the injury will cost him time ahead of the regular season. A strained groin can range from a few days to multiple weeks depending on the grade, so the Jets will proceed cautiously with their lead back in a contract year.

The 2022 second-round pick has been the centerpiece of New York's ground game when healthy, and any absence would thrust Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis into larger roles. The Jets open the season against a stiff early slate, making Hall's availability a key storyline over the next two weeks.

Glenn's measured tone is a relief for a fan base that watched the Jets' 2025 season derailed by injuries, but the organization will wait on imaging before declaring Hall fully clear. For now, the expectation is that the issue is minor — though "minor" and "groin" is rarely a combination a contender wants to see in mid-August.
