He’s back!
The Eagles have agreed to terms with safety/nickel cornerback C.J. Gardner-Johnson, bringing him back to Philadelphia. The three-year contract is “worth up to $33 million max value,” according to NFL insider Adam Schefter.
The team has a serious need for some help in the secondary, and it looks like Howie Roseman was finally able to get the guy he wanted all along — someone who can (competently) play multiple roles.
CJGJ was an important part of the team’s 2022 Super Bowl run, but some business things after the season kept him from returning to the Eagles in 2023.
