C.J. Gardner-Johnson's return to the field is confirmed after being listed as questionable due to a foot issue. He is set to face his former team, the New Orleans Saints, on Sunday. Gardner-Johnson, who played three seasons in New Orleans, had previously expressed his feelings about being traded to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Despite the absence of A.J. Brown due to a hamstring injury, the Eagles are optimistic about their defensive lineup with Gardner-Johnson back. He notably contributed last season with six interceptions, demonstrating his impact on the team's Super Bowl run.
