Mekhi Becton compares duo with Alijah Vera-Tucker to Jordan and Pippen

Make no mistake about it – Mekhi Becton is absolutely thrilled to have Alijah Vera-Tucker beside him on the New York Jets‘ offensive line.

Responding to a tweet from the Jets’ Twitter account that featured a photo of himself and Vera-Tucker at practice, Becton compared the duo of he and his new left-side partner to Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen.

While Jordan and Pippen’s total of six championships will be astronomically difficult for Becton and Vera-Tucker to match, there is certainly no doubt that the blue-chip prospects have a chance to form one of the best young offensive line duos in the NFL.
