Breece Hall vs Jaylen Warren: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Breece Hall finished the 2025 season at 11.9 PPG over 16 games with the New York Jets, while Jaylen Warren clocked in at 12.3 across 16 appearances for the Pittsburgh Steelers. A 0.4-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Jaylen Warren is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 40 targets into 333 yards, while Breece Hall profiles as a more traditional rusher with 1065 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats Jaylen Warren carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
One scheduling note: Breece Hall is off Week 12 and Jaylen Warren Week 9. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
