Jets owner Woody Johnson assembled the entire organization Monday morning, and a source familiar with the meeting told ESPNNewYork.com’s Rich Cimino that the team said it would repay all wages lost during the lockout before the employees returned to their desks.

Cimini wrote that the Jets slashed all employee salaries — including coach Rex Ryan‘s and GM Mike Tannenbaum‘s — by 25 percent when the lockout started in early March.

Ryan gave a “fiery” pep talk to the rest of the Jets organization, and Tannenbaum also spoke.

Upon returning to his desk, one employee reported the lost wages had already been direct deposited.
