Bills CB Still Furious About Dramatic Exit From Texans
Buffalo Bills defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson is extra motivated to play the Houston Texans in Week 1 of the season.
C.J. Gardner-Johnson, the defensive back for the Buffalo Bills, is eagerly anticipating his first game against his former team, the Houston Texans. The Bills will travel to Houston on September 13, marking Gardner-Johnson's first encounter with the Texans since they released him following a tumultuous season. Prior to his stint with the Chicago Bears, Gardner-Johnson had brief appearances with the Baltimore Ravens and Houston.
His release by the Texans occurred on September 23, a day after a heated altercation with teammates Kamari Lassiter and Derek Stingley Jr. following a touchdown scored by the Jacksonville Jaguars. This confrontation led to a physical exchange, though it did not escalate into a full-blown altercation. Gardner-Johnson expressed his disdain for the way he was let go by the Texans, dismissing the narrative surrounding the situation as "lies."
He believes that the players, not just the personnel decisions, contribute to the team's success and growth. Gardner-Johnson is optimistic about his future with the Bills and anticipates a challenging game against his former team, where verbal sparring may occur.
