Breece Hall taking simple mentality in his make-or-break Jets season
NY Post
Breece Hall said he went “back to the basics” this offseason after a disappointing 2024 season both for himself and the Jets.
Hall returns for his fourth season to a much different team.
Gone are the general manager and head coach who drafted him — with Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh now in Philadelphia and San Francisco, respectively.
In their places are Darren Mougey and Aaron Glenn, and a whole new set of evaluators Hall needs to impress.
“I’m around new GM, new coaches, a lot of new coaches. For me, I’ve got to go prove I am the guy. That’s every day,” Hall said Wednesday during the Jets minicamp. “I feel like my skill set [is] that I’m a three-down back that’s second to none. … We have a great running back room with a lot of healthy competition, but my mentality is every day I want to prove that I’m the best back on this roster, one of the best backs in the league.”
This is a big season for Hall, who has been steady but has not quite ever realized the potential he showed as a rookie before he tore his ACL.
Bronny James says he isn’t listening to any of the outside noise about the Lakers — even if the buzz is trade speculation about his own father, LeBron James.
After the Islanders sent down Isaiah George in January, the path back looked pretty clear for the 21-year-old defenseman.
The Mets could sure use another starting pitcher — as well as a few other additions to their bullpen and lineup — and Wednesday’s starter for the Brewers in their win in the first game of a doubleheader at Citi Field, Freddy Peralta, would seem to fit the bill.
Day 2 of free agency ended up being busy for the Islanders.

Bills 2025 first-round draft pick Maxwell Hairston is being sued for alleged sexual assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress, according to reports.
A return to New York is possible for Ben Simmons, only this time it would be on the other side of the Brooklyn Bridge.
The worst team in baseball since Friday the 13th of June caught a rare break when Tuesday night’s game versus the consistently feisty and perennially overachieving Brewers was postponed. The surprise cancellation spared the sagging Mets another potential loss, and for 18 more hours halted the worst kind of negative momentum an alleged playoff team could possibly have.
It is often a bit overblown to label an upcoming season as “crucial’’ or as “decisive’’ or the ever-popular “career-defining’’ for a young player trying to make his way in the NFL.
TORONTO — Yankees catchers are among the best in the game at stealing strikes and framing pitches.
Having five first-round picks is a First World problem.
It was shaping up to be a quiet first day of free agency for the Islanders, but general manager Mathieu Darche ended up making some noise on July 1 after all.
