Eagles Trade Gardner-Johnson Amid Speculation

The Philadelphia Eagles have traded safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson to the Houston Texans in exchange for guard Kenyon Green and a swap of late-round draft picks. This trade follows Gardner-Johnson's controversial Super Bowl parade appearance, which some speculate influenced the decision. Gardner-Johnson played a pivotal role in the Eagles' Super Bowl win and recorded six interceptions last season. The trade aids the Eagles in managing their salary cap as they plan to extend contracts for other defensive stars. Meanwhile, the Texans bolster a secondary that includes Derek Stingley Jr. and Jalen Pitre, filling a gap left by the departure of safety Eric Murray. Kenyon Green, a former first-round pick, struggled with performance and injuries in Houston but will add depth to the Eagles' offensive line.
