The Buccaneers placed Hall (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
Hall's placement on IR only officially rules him out for the next four games, but the dislocated ankle and fractured fibula in his right leg he suffered Week 1 is expected to keep the depth cornerback out for the remainder of the season. He appeared in nine regular-season games for the Jets last year.

Buccaneers' Bryce Hall: Likely out for season
Rotowire
Hall was ruled out for Week 2 against the Lions by head coach Todd Bowles on Monday with what could be a season-ending leg injury, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
Hall was carted off the field during Sunday's 37-20 win over the Commanders after suffering a dislocated ankle and fractured fibula in his right leg. The Virginia product will likely be headed to injured reserve at some point over the next couple of days and begin focusing on his recovery and return, which most likely won't happen until the 2025 campaign.

Jets' Bryce Hall: Still in mix for starting spot
Rotowire
Coach Robert Saleh said Monday that the team is still deciding between Hall and rookie first-round pick Sauce Gardner for the starting cornerback role across from D.J. Reed (hamstring), Andy Vasquez of NJ Advance Media reports.
It's encouraging to hear that Hall's still in contention to start after his forgettable Monday Night Football preseason performance against the Falcons. He was caught flat-footed on two crucial plays in the first quarter, allowing Kyle Pitts to run by him for a 52-yard gain on the opening drive before giving up a 13-yard Olamide Zaccheaus touchdown on the following possession. Hall racked up an impressive 16 passes defensed in a starting role for the Jets last season, but New York's decision to sign Reed in free agency and draft Gardner fourth overall suggests the Jets likely view Hall as a long-term backup.

Jets' Bryce Hall: Breaks up 16 passes in Year 2
Rotowire
Hall finished with 79 tackles (66 solo), 16 passes defensed and half a sack in 2021.
Hall was initially viewed as a first-round talent in the 2020 NFL Draft but slipped to the fifth round after a major ankle injury. After taking some time to get back up to speed as a rookie, Hall took a major step forward in his second season, tying the likes of Jalen Ramsey and Xavien Howard for sixth league-wide with 16 passes defensed. While Hall probably lacks the ball skills to become a truly elite cornerback, he's already established himself as a legitimate starter at the position heading into his third NFL season.

Jets' Bryce Hall: Busy against Bucs
Rotowire
Hall racked up nine tackles (seven solo) and two passes defensed in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Buccaneers.
Hall played well in coverage and in run support, though the Jets fell apart defensively after taking a 24-10 lead in the third quarter. The second-year cornerback out of Virginia has blossomed into a promising young starter on the outside for New York. Hall set a new single-game high with nine tackles and brought his season tackle total to 75 through 16 games. He's added 16 passes defensed.

Rotowire
Hall (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports, and he tested positive for the virus, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Hall is in danger of missing his first game of the season if he can not clear protocols in time for Sunday when the Jets host the Buccaneers. The second-year pro has been a bright spot in the Jets' secondary, and he's tied for sixth in the NFL in passes defensed on the season.
