New York Jets owner Woody Johnson says wide receiver Braylon Edwards has let himself and the team down as a result of his drunken-driving arrest Tuesday morning.

Johnson said Thursday that he has spoken to Edwards "three or four times" since the incident and told him his actions were "not acceptable, Braylon. I'm disappointed."

Johnson says he's more "sad" than embarrassed by some of the off-field issues with his team because they don't "represent who we are or who I want us to be."

Edwards was arraigned on drunken-driving charges Tuesday after a breath test showed he had a blood-alcohol level twice the legal limit when he was stopped on Manhattan's West Side, prosecutors said. Edwards apologized to the team Wednesday.
