Ex-NY Jets RB Ty Johnson accuses team of backstabbing

When the New York Jets released Ty Johnson with a non-football injury designation prior to the draft, it barely made a blip on the radar screen.

Johnson played a minor role with the team last season but was not even expected to be re-signed. The only surprise was that the Jets released him a month after they re-inked him.

Things don’t appear to be so simple, though. Johnson took to Instagram to tell his story, one that, if true, casts the Jets in a highly negative light.

Update: RB Ty Johnson, formerly of the #Jets, suffered a Torn Pec injury while working out.
