Jordan Travis: Woody Johnson asked, "You ever gonna get healthy?"
Our Summary
The New York Jets have traded key players to acquire three first-round picks, a second-round pick, defensive tackle Mazi Smith, and receiver AD Mitchell. The franchise, owned by Robert Wood Johnson IV, remains in the spotlight following controversial comments made by Johnson about former players. Johnson previously criticized quarterback Justin Fields publicly and reportedly made disparaging remarks to former Jets quarterback Jordan Travis about his leg injury. Travis, who was drafted by the Jets in 2024 but retired in 2025, shared his experiences on his podcast, recounting insensitive comments from Johnson. These incidents add to Johnson's history of controversial interactions, including a reported sharp criticism of quarterback Mike White. The Jets' recent moves are seen as part of a strategy to rebuild, but ongoing leadership issues may impact the team's long-term success.
