The New York Jets are entering a new era after hiring coach Aaron Glenn and General Manager Darren Mougey. The team owner, Woody Johnson, has set the future of the team in those two, but admitted that he also has to play better in his role.
The Jets have not reached the postseason since 2010, and have become exactly a winning season in that section. While the task of reversing those fortunes will fall mainly in Glenn and Mougey, Johnson admitted that there are areas in which he can improve.
“I have to look in the mirror and I have to be a better owner,” Johnson told journalists on Monday. “I am trying to be better, and I do self-haloncillo, and many people explore me.”
When asked what he can do to improve, Johnson said he could be more patient while letting his chief coach and general manager learn at work.
“I think I did it today by presenting it to the two leaders of this team,” said Johnson. “The second is that I have to be patient or whatever. I have to let them evolve in these positions, which I think will do it. I think it will be fast, but I think they will evolve.”

Johnson also approached the reports that he was very involved in daily decision making last season. The owner of the Jets said that these statements were exaggerated and said that no one knows exactly how much participation he had, except those of the building.
“You don’t believe those reports, right? There was a lot of exaggeration and hyperbole,” said Johnson. “There really was. You have to carry all those things with a grain of salt because nobody knows how involved it was.”
One of the most important questions that Johnson and the Jets this low season is the future of the field marshal Aaron Rodgers. In your introductory press conference, Glenn was quite not compromised about bringing Rodgers back in 2025.
