The New York Jets made a $14 million decision on running back Breece Hall on Tuesday.The team announced that they placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on the star running back, preventing Hall from becoming an unrestricted free agent. The non-exclusive tag is worth $14.293 million and means that Hall is allowed to negotiate with other teams and sign an offer sheet.If Hall signs an offer sheet with another team, the Jets have the right of first refusal. If the Jets decline to match Hall’s offer sheet, they would receive two first-round draft picks as compensation, a steep price for a running back.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMHall, 24, posted a cryptic message to X following the news."Always been the type to bet on myself.
