Jets owner Woody Johnson apologized Tuesday night after committing a common social media faux pas that had some speculating he was planning a front office shakeup.
Johnson said he accidentally favorited a tweet from a fan calling for him to fire general manager John Idzik.
“Have to be more careful when scrolling through my Twitter feed,” Johnson said in a tweet late Tuesday night. “The tweet I most recently favorited was inadvertent.”
Johnson appears to have clicked the star button on the tweet, which read “@woodyjohnson4 you really need to #FireIdzik at this point. This roster is garbagio.”
Johnson de-favorited the tweet a short time later, but not before the user posted a screenshot showing a notification about the Jets owner's slip-up.
