Is Breece Hall going to miss time with his Groin Injury? How Serious Is It?
Breece Hall suffered a groin injury at Jets practice after going down untouched, immediately raising concerns for fantasy football owners. Head coach Aaron Glenn has said Hall is expected to miss approximately two to three weeks but should be ready for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans.
Dr. Jesse Morse breaks down what a Grade 1 groin/adductor strain could mean for Hall, how long recovery typically takes, the risk of re-injury, and what fantasy football owners should be thinking about heading into draft season.
Why it matters for a running back
A running back constantly uses the groin/adductor muscles for:
- Explosive acceleration out of the backfield
- Cutting and changing direction
- Planting one foot and redirecting
- Lateral movement
- Breaking tackles
- Opening the hips while running
- Decelerating quickly
Even a small strain can affect those movements.
