While there may have been a few fans sweating out Jets rookie Breece Hall being so late to put pen to paper, the reality is that there was never a threat of him missing any time.
Under the current CBA, a player holding out is about as common as a good Mike Maccagnan draft pick. In other words, it wasn’t happening.
The deal will pay Hall $9 million over four seasons and gives Gang Green the most physically gifted runner to wear Green and White in decades.
