Justin Fields and Woody Johnson exchanged comments ahead of Jets-Bengals game

Justin Fields sent a clear message to Jets owner Woody Johnson after Johnson sided with head coach Aaron Glenn when he benched Fields against the Carolina Panthers. Fields shrugged off the criticism and stated that engaging in a back-and-forth with Johnson wouldn't do anything for his game.

"I don't think me talking to him is going to do anything," Fields said Wednesday after practice. "It's not going to make me play better. It's not going to give me more confidence on the field, so I don't think there's necessarily a point in talking about that, and I doubt he'll come and talk to me."

He added that he's not planning to confront Johnson over his comments, saying that everybody has an opinion and he's not losing sleep over it.

"I'm not sure how he feels about the situation at all, but, I mean, I don't have any plans going up to press him about what he said," Fields said. "Everybody's entitled to their opinion. That's just what it is, but you just have a choice or not whether those opinions affect you or not."

The New York Jets had struggled to win games, despite Justin Fields' interesting performances. The AFC East team was competitive at times, but they couldn't close the deal until Week 8.

Fields joined from the Pittsburgh Steelers in the offseason, carrying little expectations. He became a polarizing figure, with some blaming the organization for the team's failures and others putting Fields under the spotlight.

Sunday's win could give the team a boost in confidence for the rest of the season or it could be an illusion against an inconsistent Bengals team.
