Armand Membou won’t win Offensive Rookie of the Year — the award just isn't meant to be given to offensive linemen. But he’s quietly putting together a season that deserves to be in that conversation anyway.
Offensive linemen rarely get any spotlight, much less awards, but the New York Jets’ rookie right tackle has been so consistently dominant that it’s impossible to ignore him at this stage.
A first-year regime trying to rebuild its foundation under Darren Mougey and Aaron Glenn seems to have already struck gold with its 2025 first-round pick. Membou has started every game since Week 1 and hasn’t looked remotely overmatched, holding his own against some of the NFL’s best pass rushers.
