The New York Jets have made several moves throughout the offseason to improve their team, and that even means bringing back some of their current players. One of those players is Breece Hall , whom the Jets just signed to a contract extension instead of making him play on the franchise tag, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

“The Jets and star RB Breece Hall have a deal, extending him long-term rather than have him play on the tag. It’s a 3-year, $45.75M deal worth $15.25M per year done by agent [Nicole Lynn] of [Klutch Sports],” Garafolo wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
“Sources: The contract for Breece Hall is really a two-year, fully-guaranteed $29m deal ($14.5m APY). The third year does not have any grantees in it, but with it, and incentives, the APY jumps,” Connor Hughes of SNY wrote on X .
The Jets placed the franchise tag on Hall earlier in the offseason, but there was optimism that they would come to a long-term deal with him, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic.
“The Jets would like to sign Hall to a multi-year deal and league sources believe that number would come in somewhere between the transition and franchise values on a per-year basis,” Rosenblatt wrote.

It’s good that the Jets were able to get something done with Hall, who was one of the bright spots of their offense last season. Outside of him, it was hard to find any consistency within the group, and the Jets have plans on changing that. Hall finished 2025 with 1,065 rushing yards and four touchdowns.
This offseason should be considered a good one for the Jets, as they switched up their quarterback room, acquiring Geno Smith and trading up in the draft to select Cade Klubnik . There is still a chance that the Jets add another veteran quarterback, as they recently had a meeting with Russell Wilson .
The Jets’ offense was one of the worst in the league last season, and it looks like things will be better after some of the things they’ve done this offseason.
