An apology has been issued by NFL Network media personality Colleen Wolfe.
On Wednesday, it was reported by Wolfe that Johnson and Jets head coach Robert Saleh had a “very heated conversation” at the NFL Owners’ Meeting in Orlando, Florida.

Johnson took to X to vehemently deny the report and slam NFL Network in the process.
“All this nonsense about a heated argument between Coach Saleh and me at the League Meeting is absolutely false. It is yet another irresponsible report from NFL Network. Please disregard.”
Wolfe has now apparently walked back her claims and issued an apology on X for creating an “unneccesary distraction.”
“Regarding my comments surrounding the Jets on the @AroundTheNFL podcast: no, I was not at the Annual Meeting and yes, I was told of the exchange between head coach Robert Saleh & Woody Johnson by someone in attendance. Others on-site Sunday night have since reached out and described the interaction differently. My intent wasn’t to break news, I leave that to the insiders. My sincerest apologies to the Jets organization for the unnecessary distraction during such a crucial part of their offseason.”
There’s never a lack of drama with the New York Jets.
Regardless of a heated conversation or not, head coach Robert Saleh will enter his fourth season as head coach of the team firmly on the hot seat as he has yet to reach the playoffs with the Jets or finish with an above .500 record.
