Breece Hall has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Chicago, Jets coach Aaron Glenn announced Friday. New York will also be without receiver Adonai Mitchell, tight end Mason Taylor and left guard Dylan Parham, leaving four offensive starters unavailable as the Jets try to end a two-game losing streak.
Hall's quadriceps injury and Parham's knee injury occurred in last week's loss at Detroit. Mitchell has a finger injury and Taylor a thumb injury. Friday's announcement settles Hall's game status after Glenn called him week-to-week Wednesday. None of the four offensive starters practiced this week, ESPN's Rich Cimini reported.
Braelon Allen will replace Hall, with Isaiah Davis also expected to get backfield work. Allen has 61 rushing yards and one touchdown on 19 carries this season. Cimini reported that Allen has never had more than 12 rushing attempts in an NFL game, so the expanded assignment arrives with limited experience carrying a larger workload.

The team has not announced a touch split. Hall's absence makes Allen the next back up, while Davis' expected involvement leaves room for more than one player in the rotation.
Linebacker Kiko Mauigoa was also ruled out Friday. Glenn's announcement establishes this week's absences; it supplies no return date for Hall or the other injured starters.
