Whoo boy, has it been a rough week for the New York Jets and team owner Robert Wood “Woody” Johnson.
On Tuesday, a New York Times story said President Donald Trump asked Johnson, his ambassador to the United Kingdom since 2017, to help steer the British Open to a Trump resort. As if that wasn’t enough, a day later CNN reported that the State Department investigated Johnson for allegedly making racist and sexist comments to staff.
“I have followed the ethical rules and requirements of my office at all times,” he said.
