Jets RB Breece Hall’s Near-1,000-Yard Season Ended On Cringeworthy Mistake by Coaching Staff

New York Jets running back Breece Hall finished six yards shy of 1,000 rushing yards this season—seemingly because of a coaching staffer’s bad math.

The second-year back from Iowa State registered 37 carries for 178 yards and one touchdown in Week 18’s 17—3 road win over the New England Patriots, which put him at 994 rushing yards on the year. Hall just needed just a few more yards to claim his first 1,000-yard rushing season as a pro, but he fell short for the most cringeworthy reason possible.

Jets coach Robert Saleh told reporters after the game that the coaching staff was well aware of Hall’s inching closer to the 1,000-yard mark during the season finale. Unfortunately, one of the coaches’ math was just “wrong.”
