The Detroit Lions have sneakily made a number of very strong moves in free agency this offseason, and on Sunday evening, the Vikings rivals were at it once again. ESPN‘s Adam Schefter announced that former Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Chauncey Gardner-Johnson would be heading to Detroit.
After spending his first three NFL seasons with the New Orleans Saints, Gardner-Johnson was traded to Philadelphia ahead of the 2022 season, and with the Eagles, he tied for the NFL-lead with six interceptions despite playing just 12 games. He also recorded 67 tackles, 5 TFLs, a sack, and 8 passes defended.
