“So I know he’s going to be chomping at the bit to get on the field early. So we’re gonna have to do a good job of protecting him against himself a little bit because he’s so motivated, so hungry, and attacking rehab the way he is. So we’re gonna see. We have very detailed checkpoints for Breece to hit in his rehab and we’re gonna follow that to a ‘T’ because I think we all saw last year the weapon that he can be with the ball in his hands.”
Hall rushed for 463 yards and four touchdowns on 80 carries and added 218 receiving yards on 19 catches with a score in seven games before the ACL tear wiped out his season. The knee injury sapped Gang Green of its most dynamic playmaker and started their hasty 2022 descent from a plucky upstart 5-2 record into a tail-spinning 2-8 finish.
If he’s healthy, Hall provides Rodgers a sidecar with game-breaking ability. The question is when he’ll be ready and whether he’ll be fully recovered or if it will take a season-plus to get back to his pre-injury status — like we saw Saquon Barkley take longer than a year to get back to form.
