It has been a forgettable season for the New York Jets, and even one of their rare wins reportedly included a "brutal experience" in what should have been a celebratory aftermath.

Zack Rosenblatt, Dianna Russini and Michael Silver of The Athletic published a lengthy piece detailing the dysfunction of the Jets under team owner Woody Johnson on Thursday and relayed an interaction featuring quarterback Aaron Rodgers and Johnson's son, Brick, following a victory over the Houston Texans on Halloween.

It was the first win for Jeff Ulbrich after the Jets fired Robert Saleh, and Rodgers had a game ball in hand ready to give it to the interim coach.

"But before Rodgers could speak, Brick Johnson took another game ball and awarded it to wide receiver Garrett Wilson in a profanity-laced exclamation, which the owner's son later posted to Instagram," The Athletic reported. "Woody Johnson then gave Ulbrich the ball Rodgers had been holding. Multiple players said the energy felt drained out of the room."

One player called it "the most awkward, cringe-worthy, brutal experience."

While Wilson did have an incredible one-handed touchdown catch during that win, it is a testament to a season to forget that even such a celebratory moment was tainted by the overall experience.

New York is just 4-10 during a campaign that started with promise and playoff expectations thanks to the return of a healthy Rodgers. Instead, the team has fired its head coach in Saleh and general manager in Joe Douglas and sits well outside the postseason picture.

A trade for star receiver Davante Adams didn't lead to consistent wins, and now there are questions about the 41-year-old Rodgers' future with an important offseason looming.

It will be partially up to Woody Johnson to build a contender and hire the correct general manager and head coach who can help turn things around for the AFC East team. But the piece from The Athletic surely didn't inspire a lot of confidence from the fanbase that he can do just that.
