For the second straight season, Alijah Vera-Tucker walked off the field at Empower Field at Mile High with a potentially serious injury.
Vera-Tucker, who has been the Jets’ best starting offensive lineman this season, injured his calf in the second quarter and did not return. After the game, coach Robert Saleh sounded worried the injury could be serious.When asked if Vera-Tucker could have an Achilles injury, Saleh only said: “He’s going to have to get an MRI.”Vera-Tucker has been a key piece of the offensive line this season, moving from right guard to right tackle in Week 3 to help stabilize the line.
“I need to do better in that situation,” Wilson said. “I knew the situation was if we throw the ball inbounds, we’ve got to clock it. I think, obviously, I was frustrated we didn’t get back quick enough to clock it but what’s that five 5 throwing to C.J. really doing for us? We already were in field-goal range. Really, it’s take a shot at the end zone and I knew that but I felt like he was so open, I was like, ‘Let me give him a chance to go run for it.’ But really there was no shot of that.
