New York Jets offensive lineman Alijah Vera-Tucker has a torn Achilles tendon that will sideline him for the rest of the season. He started the first two games at right guard before sliding over to right tackle. Vera-Tucker, a 2021 first-round draft pick out of USC, also has played left guard and left tackle during his brief NFL career. Vera-Tucker moved from right guard to right tackle when Brown — the left tackle — was placed on IR after the second game. Saleh spoke last week about potentially keeping Vera-Tucker at right tackle permanently because of how well he played there.

The New York Jets celebrated Nathaniel Hackett's return to Denver by rallying past the Broncos 31-21 on Sunday behind Breece Hall's 72-yard touchdown run and Bryce Hall's 39-yard game-sealing scoop-and-score off Russell Wilson's fumble in the final minute. That gave Hackett, the Jets' offensive coordinator who was fired after going 4-11 as Denver's head coach last season, a measure of satisfaction. Then, Wilson led the Broncos to a touchdown and 2-point conversion to make it 24-21 late in the fourth quarter. Fans streamed to the exits after that turnover and it was eerily mostly empty while Jets players hugged Hackett on the sideline. Breece Hall's long TD run up the middle came on the Jets' second snap of the second half and put them ahead for good at 15-13.
