From the time Mekhi Becton was lost for the season with a fractured kneecap during training camp, the New York Jets have had constant decisions to make at the tackle position.
Six different players have seen action at tackle for the Jets this season: Duane Brown, George Fant, Max Mitchell, Conor McDermott, Alijah Vera-Tucker, and Cedric Ogbuehi. There have now been five injured reserve stints between them of varying durations. Vera-Tucker is gone for the year. McDermott was taken off the Jets’ hands by the Patriots. At one point, the team’s depth at both tackle and guard was Mike Remmers.
