New York Jets owner Woody Johnson used social media Thursday to refute a claim by an NFL Network host that he and coach Robert Saleh engaged in a "very heated conversation" earlier this week at the NFL owners' meetings in Orlando, Florida.
"All this nonsense about a heated argument between Coach Saleh and me at the league meeting is absolutely false," Johnson said on X. "It is yet another irresponsible report from NFL Network. Please disregard."
It's unusual for Johnson, 76, to respond in this manner, but he evidently felt compelled after a comment by NFL Network's Colleen Wolfe gained traction late Wednesday.
