Former Philadelphia Eagles safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson is the most recent NFL player to have a problem with the turf at State Farm Stadium. Gardner-Johnson, who signed with the Detroit Lions this offseason, tweeted that the Eagles' defense would have thrived against the Kansas City Chiefs' offensive line in the Super Bowl "on legit grass."

For those who have already forgotten, several players were seen slipping and sliding on the turf during Super Bowl LVII in Glendale, Arizona, and Philadelphia defensive lineman Haason Reddick called it "the worst field I ever played on" after the game.
