Jets' Offensive Lineman Alijah Vera-Tucker Out for Season With Torn Achilles

Vera-Tucker tore his Achilles tendon during the Jets' Week 5 win over the Broncos.
This is the second straight season Vera-Tucker has suffered a season-ending injury against the Broncos.
The versatile lineman had started all five games for the Jets this year.
Vera-Tucker's absence deals a major blow to a Jets offensive line already struggling to protect QB Zach Wilson.
The Jets have not named a replacement starter at right tackle, with Max Mitchell and Billy Turner among the options.
