CJ Gardner-Johnson provides Eagles rocket fuel with latest comments heading into the 2025 season

Man, has CJ Gardner-Johnson really soured on me. He was easily one of my favorite Eagles during both of his short stints in Philadelphia—each ending in a Super Bowl appearance, with one of them ending in a ring.

Unfortunately, he sounds like a total bitter ex-girlfriend now that he’s on the Texans following the trade this offseason. He just can’t help himself by making nonstop comments about the team he played his best football for.

Ladies and gentlemen, let’s call this what it is. This is total rocket fuel for the 2025 Philadelphia Eagles. This was a huge mistake by CJGJ because he clearly doesn’t have the awareness to realize what he’s just done.

This iteration of the Eagles is by far the favorite of my lifetime because we have absolute dawgs all over the roster. A team that just smashed the Kansas City Chiefs on the world’s largest stage is just as hungry to get back. And that is one of the many reasons why I love this squad.

This isn’t the 2017 Eagles that will suffer from a Super Bowl hangover. These are all young men who aren’t satisfied. Jalen Hurts wants to stake his claim as the best quarterback in the league not named Patrick Mahomes.

And now you got a former Eagle claiming this team can’t get back to the Super Bowl? A catastrophic mistake.

CJ just woke up this entire locker room

If you think this quote isn’t already on a bulletin board inside the NovaCare Complex, you haven’t been paying any attention.

So while CJ is now on a Houston Texans team that’s already under a microscope after CJ Stroud’s late-season regression, let’s be honest—the addition of a declining Chauncey Gardner-Johnson doesn’t exactly help their cause. Meanwhile, the reigning, defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles are heading into the 2025 season completely distraction-free.
