New York Jets fans have been saying it for years. Decades, even. Woody Johnson isn’t a good owner. It’s practically the first line of the franchise’s modern history book, a belief passed down from generation to generation of exhausted Jets fans like folklore.
And now, finally, Woody himself admitted he agrees.
Johnson spoke with The Athletic's Dianna Russini at the NFL fall meetings last week and said the quiet part out loud: “Well, I’m obviously not a good owner in terms of winning." This was in response to a question about what makes him a good owner.
