The Eagles lost S Chauncey Gardner-Johnson to the Lions. Gardner-Johnson signed with the Detroit Lions for a one-year, below-market deal worth $8 million, which had fans scratching their heads as to why the Eagles couldn’t retain the 2022 NFL interceptions leader. Sheil and Ben discuss what possibly led to Gardner-Johnson’s departure and talk about his agents tweeting information about what the Eagles offered him. Which free agent safeties should the Eagles look for to fill the void? Plus, they look at other signings and departures, including backup QB Marcus Mariota, OL Isaac Seumalo, and DB Greedy Williams.
