Allen Park — C.J. Gardner-Johnson has zero interest looking back. The Detroit Lions defensive back made his return to practice on Saturday, five days after being carted off the field with a scary leg injury. As far as he's concerned, that's old news not worth discussing.
Meeting with the media after practice, Gardener-Johnson quickly dismissed a handful of questions about the injury, and more specifically, the sense of relief he felt when he learned the issue wasn't serious.
"Next comment," Gardner-Johnson said. "I'm good. God."
Even though he was sidelined three practices, Gardner-Johnson made it clear he didn't take a day off.
