Should the NY Jets consider keeping Alijah Vera-Tucker at tackle?

Should the New York Jets consider switching the position of their best offensive player?

Garrett Wilson? You might ask. Breece Hall?

Nope. The distinction of Jets offensive MVP goes to offensive lineman Alijah Vera-Tucker, and it’s not particularly close.

AVT preserved the Jets’ season when it could have gone off the rails almost immediately. Come Week 4, with Jets fans shuddering at the thought of seeing Conor McDermott go up against Alex Highsmith of the Steelers, they instead saw No. 75 lined up at left tackle.

The second-year player stabilized the Jets’ offensive line and elevated Hall to the Offensive Rookie of the Year frontrunner.
