C.J. Gardner-Johnson doesn’t want to make his return to Philadelphia about him.

The Bears’ slot cornerback spent last season with the Eagles, winning a Super Bowl before the team traded him to the Texans for offensive lineman Kenyon Green and a swap of draft picks.

“Won a championship there,” he said after Sunday’s game. “Other than that, I appreciate ‘em.”

“That ain’t about me,” he said.
