C.J. Gardner-Johnson returns to Eagles on 'three-year, $33million deal' after calling the people of Philly 'F*****G OBNOXIOUS'... but offers fans apology and calls city an 'amazing place'

C.J. Gardner-Johnson is returning to the Eagles - less than a year after blasting the people of Philadelphia.

On Tuesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the defensive back was signing a three-year deal worth up to $33million with the franchise after spending last season with the Lions.

And the agreement comes after Gardner-Johnson trashed Eagles fans in July.  

'My least favorite thing [about Philadelphia] is the people,' he said during a stream of him playing a video game.

'They're f*****g obnoxious. Can't stand these f***ers.'

He apologized on his X account for blasting the people of Philly, calling the city 'amazing'

Gardner-Johnson confirmed on his X account on Tuesday that he was heading back to Philly, where he spent the 2022 season, and walked back his previous comments.

'I do owe the fans of Philly an apology, regardless this is an amazing place and we had some memories together!,' he wrote. 'Let’s go get us one #FlyEaglesFly.'

The 26-year-old was part of the Eagles squad that went 14-3 in the regular season before falling to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl.

He posted a joint league-leading six interceptions that year to go along with 61 solo tackles.

Gardner-Johnson then left for the Lions on a one-year, $6.5million deal.

A 2019 fourth-round pick, he was drafted by the Saints and spent his first three seasons in New Orleans.

He was traded to the Eagles in 2022 along with a future seventh-round pick, in exchange for a future sixth-round pick and 2023 fifth-rounder.

In another big splash, the Eagles also signed running back Saquon Barkley away from the rival Giants.
