Eagles' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Nabs interception in blowout win
Gardner-Johnson recorded seven total tackles (two solo) and one interception in Sunday's 34-6 win over the Cowboys.
The Florida product was the Eagles' second-leading tackler in Sunday's blowout win, trailing just Zack Baun's eight-stop performance. Gardner-Johnson also picked off Cooper Rush in the fourth quarter, his second interception in the Eagles' last three games. The 26-year-old now ranks in the top three on Philadelphia's defense in both interceptions and passes defended, and he's expected to continue wreaking havoc on opposing wide receivers as the season progresses.

The Eagles are slated to sign Gardner-Johnson to a three-year deal worth up to $33 million, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Lions' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Productive when healthy in 2023
Gardner-Johnson recorded 17 tackles and three passes defended including one interception over three regular-season games in 2023.
Gardner-Johnson signed a one-year deal to defend the slot in Detroit, but he ultimately was moved to safety to accommodate impressive rookie Brian Branch before missing 14 games due to a torn pectoral muscle. However, Gardner-Johnson was nonetheless productive when healthy, as the playmaker snagged a pick not only in his Week 18 return from injured reserve but also in Detroit's divisional-round win over Tampa Bay. Now set to become an unrestricted free agent, Gardner-Johnson may have to settle for another one-year contract given his injury-marred 2023.
