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 seasonSEPTEMBER 4 • 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.

Impact The starting right guard suffered the injury during a one-one-one drill at practice. Vera-Tucker also previously suffered a torn right triceps in 2022, as well as a torn Achilles in 2023, but he started 15 regular-season games last year in what was a career-best campaign. His loss is now a significant blow for the Jets. Backup guard Xavier Newman could bump into the starting lineup as a result, but New York could also opt to move one of Joe Tippman or Josh Myers from center over to right guard for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Impact Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Vera-Tucker is dealing with an arm injury that may required surgery, and for which he's now seeking a second opinion. The starting right guard is coming off the best season of his career, and his loss for any amount of time would be a notable blow to quarterback Justin Fields, as well as running backs Breece Hall and Braelon Allen.
