Jets' Woody Johnson says 'I have to be a better owner'

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets owner Woody Johnson, heavily criticized for his role in last season's 5-12 disappointment, vows to improve in 2025.

"Absolutely, I have to look in the mirror, and I have to be a better owner," Johnson said Monday after introducing new coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey. "And I'm trying to be better."

Johnson, 77, got more involved than usual last season. For the first time in 25 years of ownership, he fired his head coach during the season, dismissing Robert Saleh in Week 6 after three-plus seasons.
