“I personally want to thank Aaron for his stay at the New York Jets,” said Johnson in the team’s declaration. “His arrival in 2023 was greeted by a frantic excitement and I will always be grateful to have chosen to join us to continue his career at the renowned temple, and immersed himself in our city.
