Jets veteran defender calls 2025: 'worst season I've been a part of' image

The New York Jets' 2025 season came to a grueling end on Sunday evening, picked apart by the Buffalo Bills' backups en route to a 35-8 defeat. New York finished the season on a five-game losing streak, losing each game by 20 or more points.

The Jets set a series of new lows, forcing a league-worst four turnovers, and somehow not recording a single interception for the first time in NFL history since 1933.

One veteran defender couldn't believe just how bad things got throughout the lowly season, and called for every player and coach to take accountability for the Jets' failures.

Jermaine Johnson says 'everybody's hands are bloody' from 2025 season

When meeting with reporters after the loss, Jets edge rusher Jermaine Johnson responded to head coach Aaron Glenn taking responsibility for the 3-14 season.

"Honestly, and I hope y'all don't quote this wrong, but it's definitely been the worst season I've been a part of as a team, and key word a part. I've got my hands in it, my hands are bloody, everybody's hands are bloody in this. So for him to say it's on him, I don't fully agree," Johnson told reporters.

"I think everybody's hands are dirty. I know the character of the men out there, they're definitely going to remember this feeling and not let it happen again."

Johnson is one of the longest tenured members of the Jets at this point, having been here since 2022. Considering New York hasn't done a lot of winning during his time with the team, it's eye-opening that he called 2025 the worst.

Jets fans will hope and pray that Glenn can figure it out and turn things around in 2026, or it may be time to find a new voice at the top of the organization.
