New York Jets rookie first-round offensive tackle Armand Membou will be the Week 1 starter at right tackle for the Jets, barring something unforeseen, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. Membou moves extremely well for being 332 pounds -- he ran a 4.92-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine. The 21-year-old did struggle against Will McDonald IV during offseason practices, but Membou was at a disadvantage in non-padded practices, and he should be able to block at the second level in his first year in the NFL in 2025. "We've seen all the workout warriors who can't play a lick of ball. Membou can play ball," offensive line coach Steve Heiden said. The Jets took Membou eighth overall in April's NFL draft out of Missouri. He has a rare combination of size, strength and athleticism and will immediately make New York's offensive line better.--Keith Hernandez
