If you’ve been following the New York Jets this offseason, it was no secret that Breece Hall was going to be one of the big guns, if not the focal point of the Jets’ 2024 offense. Head coach Robert Saleh even went so far as to call Hall a “bellcow” a few months ago, which is notable in a league that largely operates on a “running back by committee” approach.

But as the end of this tweet suggests, coaches don’t always tell the truth. Their actions usually do.

That said, Week 1 might provide reason to believe Saleh was telling the truth about this plan, as Hall was essentially the only running back the team used until garbage time.

For the Jets, this underscores that the team seems to be really going all in. Week 1 showed that the team was willing to use Breece as often as possible to get the most out of him, including using him as a runner, pass catcher and pass blocker.

Furthermore, if this trend continues, Hall could have the most remarkable season for a Jets running back since Curtis Martin won the rushing title in 2004. That makes Hall’s effort and performance worth keeping an eye on as the season progresses.
