'Really, just actually getting tackled,' Hall said. 'Just to get a few carries in, whether it's five plays, six plays and get tackled to the ground and maybe get a blitz pressure and have to pick up a guy blitzing that's trying to run through me and get a sack.'

Hall gets live tackling reps and carries in preseason opener after limited contact in practice.

Running back Breece Hall is expected to get carries in the Jets' preseason opener on Friday. Hall expressed enthusiasm about getting live tackling reps, which are not allowed in practice. The Jets use a "thud" drill where tacklers wrap up and release without driving the ball carrier to the ground. Hall said: "Really, just actually getting tackled. Even [Tuesday], me and Antoine Winfield had a really good thud and hold and I haven't really been hit too much like that. It was good to get that feel. Just to get a few carries in, whether it's five plays, six plays and get tackled to the ground and maybe get a blitz pressure and have to pick up a guy blitzing that's trying to run through me and get a sack." Head coach Aaron Glenn is playing all starters in the preseason opener as part of a strategy to give players 25-30 combined reps across all three preseason games.
