According to a report this month by The Athletic, Jets owner Woody Johnson has made team decisions based on the ratings for players in the “Madden” NFL football games from EA Sports. That report also connected Johnson’s sons, Brick Johnson included, to team decisions.

Former Jets coach Eric Mangini said that Rodgers has been “doing everything he can to get cut” by owner Woody Johnson.

Zack Rosenblatt, Dianna Russini and Michael Silver are out with quite a read on The Athletic that goes in-depth on owner Woody Johnson's unusual managerial style. It sounds as though Johnson has been doing his own research and giving a lot of credence to his sons' opinions, something that has added to the internal strife.
