Vera-Tucker has excelled when on the field but suffered season-ending injuries in each of the last two years while dressing for only 12 of a possible 34 games over that span. The 2021 first-round draft pick is back healthy and hoping to stay that way as the Jets' starting right guard in 2024.

Vera-Tucker showed off his versatility prior to a season-ending torn triceps in 2022, performing at a high level after shifting from guard to tackle on the Jets' injury-riddled offensive line. The 2021 first-round pick is projected to start at right guard in 2023.

Vera-Tucker appeared in 16 of a possible 17 games as a rookie, starting at left guard in every appearance. The 14th overall selection in the 2021 NFL Draft is expected to slide over to right guard to accommodate free agent signing Laken Tomlinson, but Vera-Tucker remains penciled in as a starter for New York.

The Jets traded up to select Vera-Tucker 14th overall with their second first-round selection of the 2021 draft. He's capable of sliding over to tackle if necessary, but the rookie lineman out of USC is projected to be a Day 1 starter at left guard for Gang Green.
