Hall and Mitchell remain out as Jets prepare for New England

Breece Hall and Adonai Mitchell will miss Sunday’s game at New England, Jets coach Aaron Glenn announced Friday. Hall has a quadriceps injury and Mitchell a finger injury. Left guard Dylan Parham (knee) and linebacker Joseph Ossai (ankle) were also ruled out.

Tight end Kenyon Sadiq was scheduled for full practice as he works through the concussion protocol. Receiver Omar Cooper Jr., who is returning from an ankle injury, was also set for full participation. Full practice alone does not establish a protocol clearance or an injured-reserve activation.

The Jets’ announcement and Josh Alper’s NBC Sports report confirm the Friday designations. NBC Sports reported that this will be Mitchell’s fourth straight missed game and the third absence of the season for Hall and Parham.

Earlier reporting: October 2

On October 2, Jets coach Aaron Glenn ruled Breece Hall out of that Sunday’s game against Chicago. New York will also be without receiver Adonai Mitchell, tight end Mason Taylor and left guard Dylan Parham, leaving four offensive starters unavailable as the Jets try to end a two-game losing streak.

Hall's quadriceps injury and Parham's knee injury occurred in last week's loss at Detroit. Mitchell has a finger injury and Taylor a thumb injury. Friday's announcement settles Hall's game status after Glenn called him week-to-week Wednesday. None of the four offensive starters practiced this week, ESPN's Rich Cimini reported.

Braelon Allen will replace Hall, with Isaiah Davis also expected to get backfield work. Allen has 61 rushing yards and one touchdown on 19 carries this season. Cimini reported that Allen has never had more than 12 rushing attempts in an NFL game, so the expanded assignment arrives with limited experience carrying a larger workload.

The team has not announced a touch split. Hall's absence makes Allen the next back up, while Davis' expected involvement leaves room for more than one player in the rotation.

Linebacker Kiko Mauigoa was also ruled out Friday. Glenn's announcement establishes this week's absences; it supplies no return date for Hall or the other injured starters.
