After weeks of drama, the New York Jets‘ Week 1 offensive line has finally taken shape. Mekhi Becton will start at right tackle, Duane Brown is back and will start at left tackle, and the interior trio is fully healthy. All is right in the world. In the end, the summertime drama was much ado about nothing.
In Saturday’s preseason finale against the New York Giants, four of the Jets’ five starters took the field. Brown sat out since he only recently returned to practice. Left guard Laken Tomlinson, center Connor McGovern, right guard Alijah Vera-Tucker, and right tackle Mekhi Becton all started the game and played three full drives together (14 snaps total).
