Breece Hall received some good news Saturday morning.
The New York Jets running back had been fined $43,709 for “unnecessary roughness” for a play made during a Week 13 game against the Atlanta Falcons. After catching a short pass, Hall lowered his head as Falcons cornerback A.J. Terrell pursued to make the tackle.
The Jets halfback was not penalized for the play, but the league felt it was an illegal play, especially after Terrell was later placed in the concussion protocol. But on Saturday, the NFL rescinded Hall’s fine after an appeal, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
