The Jets stayed true to their commitment to keep Breece Hall in New York, signing the running back to a three-year deal, according to multiple reports Friday.

The deal is worth a total of $45.75 million with an annual payout of $15.25 million, making him the third-highest paid player at his position, per NFL Network, behind the Philadelphia Eagles’ Saquon Barkley at $20.6 million annually and the San Francisco 49ers’ Christian McCaffrey at $19 million.

Hall, who turns 25 on May 31, acknowledged the deal on X, re-posting the news and writing, “Shoutout everyone in my corner. Lot of work left to do. God Bless.”

The Jets had applied the non-exclusive franchise tag to Hall in early March but also said at the time that a long-term contract was the priority for both sides.

The non-exclusive version of the tag guaranteed Hall $14.293 million for 2026 but meant Hall could negotiate with other teams, and a transition franchise tag would have paid Hall $11.323 million for one season but would have made him more attractive to another team considering an offer sheet.

“Ideally, we’d find a way to get a deal done and keep Breece around,” Jets General Manager Darren Mougey said at the NFL Scouting Combine in late February. “I think I’ve said that for the last year since I’ve got here. Breece is a good player. We want to find a way to keep him around.”

Hall has rushed for 3,398 yards and 18 touchdowns in his first four seasons since the Jets selected him in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Iowa State.

He amassed a career-high 1,065 yards in 2025, becoming the first Jets player since Chris Ivory in 2015 to surpass 1,000 rushing yards.

Hall also has 188 receptions for 1,642 yards and nine scores in 56 NFL games (50 starts).
