Over the last 15 years, the New York Jets have earned the title of one of the most dysfunctional franchises in sports. During that span, they’ve missed the playoffs each year, including running back Breece Hall’s first four years, the longest active playoff drought in the NFL. They’d last made the postseason back in 2010, when Rex Ryan led the team to back-to-back AFC Championship appearances.

During this span of poor management, the Jets have also gone nine seasons without producing a 1,000-yard rusher, a feat Hall aims to change.

Only needing 46 more yards, Hall not only has his first 1,000-yard season on his mind, but also his long-term future, as his rookie contract will run out after this year. ESPN’s New York Jets Staff Writer, Rich Cimini, has more information on his potential future.

“From all indications, though, the Jets remain very interested in retaining Hall before he hits the open market as a free agent in March,” Cimini wrote.

While he will likely get across the 1,000-yard mark in the final two games, his potential screams that he has yet to reach his ceiling.

Crimini follows, “Bottom line, Hall, who turns 25 next season, will be arguably the top free agent running back and could command as much as $12 million per year… The Jets can’t afford to skimp at the position, considering how important the running game is to their offense. It’s who they are. The flip side is Hall’s desire to return. Frustrated by four years of losing, he might decide to look elsewhere.”

While Hall ponders his future, his priority for now will remain finishing the season strong, including his first 1,000-yard season.
