Christopher Wold Johnson

Christopher Johnson serves as Vice Chairman of the New York Jets and has overseen pivotal changes within the organization and has been a key part of the New York Jets leadership since 2000. 

Throughout his tenure, Johnson has developed a strong bond with the players.  At a particularly critical time of racial strife, Johnson addressed the team and discussed how they all—Johnson, coaches, executives, and players—could use their powerful platform to influence positive change. He proudly stood with the players and worked with them on initiatives promoting more inclusive social justice. These efforts continue today.  

Johnson is active in various educational endeavors and local philanthropy, supporting a range of initiatives, including charter school construction, youth sports and the encouragement of public discourse and exchange of ideas through debating societies, as well as scholarships for young journalists.  He seeks to affect change through thoughtful and considered philanthropy.
