Jets owner Woody Johnson comments on Zach Wilson's 2022 season

Per Costello, Johnson added that when asked if he'd potentially spend money on a seasoned quarterback in the offseason if head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas wanted to do so, the owner said, "absolutely." Johnson added that the quarterback position is "kind of the missing piece" for New York.

The 75-year-old owner also revealed that he doesn't think the organization developed Wilson the right way, and that they could have sat the former No. 2 overall pick behind a veteran signal-caller if the team had one at the time.

Saleh talked with reporters earlier Thursday morning, informing them that offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur and offensive line/run game coordinator John Benton wouldn't be returning to the team next season. With talents like leading rusher Breece Hall in the backfield and explosive wideout Garrett Wilson heading the pass-catching group, the head coach knows the Jets have a promising unit on offense.

On Monday, the quarterback told media members that he'd make "life hell" for any possible veteran competition in 2023. It's looking more and more likely that the former BYU Cougar may have that chance over the summer.
