Woody Johnson is back as principal owner of the Jets and getting acquainted with his new head coach.
Johnson spent the past four years serving as the United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom. His brother Christopher was the Jets’ chairman and CEO during Woody Johnson’s absence. He returned to the U.S. last week when his term ended.
In a series of tweets Monday, Woody Johnson announced that he finally got to speak to Robert Saleh, thanked Christopher and praised general manager Joe Douglas and team president Hymie Elhai.
