Final NY Jets injury report for Week 16 is best-case scenario for Breece Hall

NY Jets running back Breece Hall has been nursing a knee injury for weeks, but for the first time since the team's Week 11 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, Hall is off the injury report ahead of this Sunday's game.

Hall initially suffered the injury to his surgically repaired knee in Week 11, and while he was able to play in Week 13 following the Jets' bye week, it was clear he wasn't 100 percent healthy.

The Jets held Hall out the following week before he returned this past Sunday, although he was on the field for a season-low 48 percent of offensive snaps. It seems like Hall could be in line for his usual workload this week, however.

Hall was a full participant in practice all week and was not listed on the Jets' final injury report. The Jets will have their star running back on the field in a full capacity on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.

NY Jets Injury Report for Week 16:

The Jets have ruled out cornerback Michael Carter II with a back injury for their Week 16 game against the Rams. Carter has been dealing with the back injury since Week 4 and hasn't played more than 37 percent of snaps in a game since October.

The standout nickel cornerback has tried to play through the injury all season, but it might be best to shut him down at this point. Isaiah Oliver and Kendall Sheffield are the most likely candidates to fill in at nickel corner with Carter out.

The Jets have also listed four players as questionable for Sunday's game, most notably All-Pro defensive tackle Quinnen Williams. Williams exited Week 15 with a hamstring injury and did not practice at all this week.

Despite not practicing, the Jets are optimistic that Williams will be able to play this weekend. Javon Kinlaw, Solomon Thomas, and rookie Leonard Taylor III are the other defensive tackles on the active roster.

Nose tackle Leki Fotu is listed as questionable with a knee injury and is eligible to return from the injured reserve. The Jets have an open spot on their 53-man roster after placing Jalen Mills on IR. Fotu could be activated before Sunday's game.

Running back Braelon Allen is questionable with a back injury he suffered in Week 15. Allen was a limited participant on Wednesday and Thursday but was upgraded to a full participant on Friday, suggesting he will be able to play on Sunday.

Starting right guard Alijah Vera-Tucker is questionable with an ankle injury. Vera-Tucker was a limited participant in practice on Thursday and a full participant on Friday. He is expected to play this week.

Cornerback D.J. Reed does not have an injury designation and was a full participant in practice this week. He will make his return on Sunday after missing last week's game.
