Shocker: The #Saints  are trading DB Chauncey Gardner-Johnson to the #Eagles, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. After extension talks broke down, the focus shifted from keeping Gardner-Johnson to trading him. Philly lands a starter.


quote:

Chauncey Gardner-Johnson’s agent, Kevin Conner of @UniSportsMgmt, confirmed the trade to the #Eagles. In Philadelphia, Gardner-Johnson is expected to be a full-time safety – a position that’s become far more lucrative than the nickel spot he often played in New Orleans.

quote:

Full trade terms: ??Eagles receive safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson and Saints’ 7th-round pick in 2025. ??Saints receive the Eagles’ 5th-round pick in 2023 and the worse of their two 6th-round picks in 2024.


Kind of saw this coming with the Taylor draft pick and the contract extension looming. Sucks to lose him.

Looks like he wants to play safety because the money is much better.

writing was on the wall when he was in trade talks with the Texans. Can't sign them all and he was always going to be a difficult player to get a true value for.

I am going to miss him.

He likely wants a big contract

He’s a nickel CB

The two do not jive

The damage was done, though. Sources say Gardner-Johnson stopped taking coaching,

However, if this is the case I will give it to our coach for making a strong decision.

Yeah there really is no idea what he was asking for but he views himself as the best slot corner so I’m assuming he wanted to be paid like one.

I knew this was going to happen

Good. He wanted too much money, not prudent to sign just because people like his attitude

Alonte Taylor lighting it up in camp probably has a lot to do with this as well.
