Officially done for the year Jets coach Aaron Glenn said Thursday that Vera-Tucker will miss the entire 2025 season due to a torn triceps injury.

Impact Vera-Tucker's injury requires season-ending surgery, and he will assuredly be placed on IR in the near future. Backup Xavier Newman will be one candidate to start in place of Vera-Tucker at right guard Sunday versus the Steelers, though No. 1 center Joe Tippmann could also slide over one spot. In that case, Josh Myers would start at center for the Jets.

Jets' Alijah Vera-Tucker to miss season with torn triceps, coach Aaron Glenn confirms

New York Jets right guard Alijah Vera-Tucker has a torn triceps and will miss the season

SEPTEMBER 4, 2025 • Associated Press

Requires season-ending surgery Vera-Tucker is scheduled to undergo season-ending surgery on his torn triceps in the coming days, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Vera-Tucker suffered the triceps injury during practice Tuesday, and after receiving a second opinion, he determined that surgery was the best course for treatment. The 2021 first-round pick will now have missed significant time in three of his first five years in the NFL; he previously suffered a season-ending triceps tear to his opposite arm in 2022, and he missed 12 games in 2023 due to a torn Achilles. Joe Tippmann had been penciled in to start at center this season, but he could slide over to Vera-Tucker's spot at right guard for Sunday's opener versus the Steelers, which would clear the way for Josh Myers to start at center.
