EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Breece Hall is the New York Jets' do-it-all running back who makes the offense go, even with all the uncertainty at quarterback.

Bijan Robinson has that same vital role for the Atlanta Falcons, who rely on him to get the ground game moving while also being an invaluable outlet in the passing game.

The two square off on Sunday at MetLife Stadium when the Falcons (4-7) hit the road to face the Jets (2-9) in a matchup of struggling teams with playmaking running backs.

Hall went 2-0 with Iowa State against Robinson and Texas in college, but Robinson won the lone meeting in the pros when Atlanta beat New York in 2023.

“That’s been my boy since college,” a smiling Hall said. “Excited to go against him this week.”
