New York Jets owner Woody Johnson is putting the onus on turning around his club's fortunes squarely on his shoulders after the disappointments of 2024."Absolutely, I have to look in the mirror, and I have to be a better owner,

After years of failure, Jets owner Woody Johnson has realized that he should stay out of the team's football decisions.
The Jets owner said all the right things when introducing his new head coach and general manager — will he follow through?
“I have to look in the mirror and I have to be a better owner,” Johnson said. “And I'm trying to be better.” The Jets have missed the playoffs for 14 consecutive years under Johnson’s ownership.

Recently, the New York Jets took the first step toward rebuilding their franchise by hiring Aaron Glenn to be their next head coach. Glenn had previously been the defense coordinator for the Detroit Lions and was one of the most sought after names on the head coaching markets this offseason.
Now that the Jets have a new coach in Aaron Glenn and a new general manager in Darren Mougey, it’s time for the real work to begin, including deciding on Aaron Rodgers‘ future.
Being better for Johnson means taking a more hands-off approach and letting the people he hired do their jobs.
