The Jets are acquiring running back James Robinson from the Jaguars for draft pick compensation, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported. New York will send a sixth-round pick that could become a fifth-round pick, per Rapoport.
New York recently lost rookie running back Breece Hall for the season with a torn ACL he suffered Sunday against the Broncos. Through seven games, Hall had totaled 463 rushing yards and four touchdowns.
Robinson spent the last two seasons as the Jaguars’ lead running back, including a 1,000-yard season in 2020.
