One of the most bizarre storylines surrounding the New York Jets this summer has been the team's unexpected competition for the starting center job between the incumbent Joe Tippmann and free-agent addition Josh Myers.
Tippmann is fresh off a breakout 2024 season in which he established himself as one of the best young centers in the NFL. The expectation entering 2025 was that Tippmann would return as a key piece of the Jets' offensive line, but new head coach Aaron Glenn might have other plans.
Myers, who has spent the last few seasons as one of the NFL's worst starting centers in Green Bay, signed with the Jets in free agency, and despite expectations that he would serve as little more than quality depth, it appears he has a legitimate chance to earn the starting job.
