"In 2024, the New York Jets finished 5-12. Aaron Rodgers started all 17 games and was released by the team this offseason. Justin Fields was signed in free agency as the team's new starter. During his career, Fields has struggled with below-average offensive line play. Especially in his time with Chicago. Unfortunately, Fields' offensive line took a major hit on Wednesday."
"Just days before the start of the 2025 NFL season, the Jets were hit with serious injury news. Starting guard Alijah Vera-Tucker reportedly suffered a significant arm injury. There is a fear that Vera-Tucker could miss a large portion of the upcoming season. That would be a massive blow to New York's offensive line. When healthy, Vera-Tucker is one of the Jets' best offensive linemen. However, the 26-year-old has missed significant time in his career due to injury."
The New York Jets finished 5-12 in 2024; Aaron Rodgers started all 17 games and was released in the offseason. Justin Fields was signed as the new starting quarterback after struggling behind below-average offensive lines in Chicago. Fields' protection weakened further when starting guard Alijah Vera-Tucker suffered a significant arm injury that could require surgery. Vera-Tucker faces tests to determine severity and could miss a large portion of the 2025 season. Vera-Tucker was named a team captain and is considered one of the Jets' best linemen when healthy. His injury compounds a history of missed time including a torn tricep in 2022 and a torn Achilles in 2023.
