C.J. Gardner-Johnson doesn’t get tired.

At least he never lets it show.

Throughout the first two days of Eagles training camp in 2024, Gardner-Johnson’s energy has been as advertised. He has looked the part at safety but beyond that, he constantly talks throughout practice and vibes to the music between plays.

What’s it like going against him every day?

“Man, C.J., he’s definitely a special dude,” tight end Dallas Goedert said. “My biggest thing for him is he’s the same person every day. He’s over the top with excitement, he loves being out here playing, he loves talking trash. But at the same time, you respect him, he respects you. It’s nothing disrespectful. It’s really fun. He brings the energy.

“If you have a bad play, he’s going to let you know about it. If you have a good play, he’s going to give you a high-five and that’s how it should be. He’s going to hold everybody accountable but that’s the same thing he holds himself to a high standard as well.”

The Eagles acquired Gardner-Johnson after training camp concluded in 2022 and after his year away in Detroit, these last two days have been his first training camp practices with the Eagles.

Of course, Gardner-Johnson’s energy throughout practice might be new to reporters in attendance but Eagles players saw it throughout the season a couple years ago. So they knew exactly what to expect.

“I’m sure y’all going to hear him every day in practice,” Eagles corner Darius Slay said. “That’s what he do. He brings a lot of swag, he brings a lot of effort. He goes out there each and every day to compete, to be his best. I’m the quiet voice, he’s the loud voice. It’s a good mixture of us together and should lead to a successful season.”
