What happened: The Jets and running back Breece Hall agreed to a three-year, $45.75 million extension, according to Ian Rapoport. The deal replaces the franchise-tag path and keeps Hall tied to New York on a long-term contract at $15.25 million per year.

Why it matters: This is a major offseason keep for a Jets team building toward the 2026 season and removes a potential contract standoff before camp. It also reinforces Hall's place in the offense after the same Breece Hall extension was reported Friday, giving New York cost certainty around one of its core skill players.

By the numbers: Contract: 3 years, $45.75 million. Average annual value: $15.25 million. Previous path: franchise tag for 2026, reported at about $14.3 million. Injury history noted in recent coverage: Hall tore his ACL in 2022.

What to watch: Watch for full contract details, including guarantees and cash flow, to clarify how aggressively the Jets committed beyond 2026. The next team-wide milestone is the NFL schedule release on May 14, which will sharpen the Jets' offseason outlook.
