Jets head coach Robert Saleh said Wednesday that Hall has "no pitch count anymore," perhaps implying that the running back will take on a larger workload moving forward, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
The Jets managed Hall's touches over the first four weeks of the season so as not to put as much strain on his surgically repaired knee after he tore his ACL last October. After being limited to 32 carries and 10 targets through four games, Hall should see a substantial increase in usage beginning with Sunday's game in Denver, as he had 111 combined carries and targets in seven games last season (15.9 per contest). Hall is averaging 6.6 yards per rushing attempt in 2023, while Dalvin Cook has mustered just 2.5 YPC on his 30 totes and will likely be relegated to a lower-volume change-of-pace role in the weeks to come.
