I said it the day he left we lost some leadership. This dude brings that dawg mentality we need. Fires people up and takes no bs - thats contagious. Just like weapon x brought that fire . We need a dawg on defense and we got him back.

He has that feeling of what Dawk had as well as what Jenkins brought to the team. This guy needs to be an Eagle for life. A three year contract is a good start

[@Vexx109]

What I love is hearing all these players like Devonta, AJ, Landon and Jordan Mailata all calling Philadelphia home. They want to be here for the long hall like the legends (Lane, BG, Kelce and Cox) before them. For CJGJ say that this is home too. We really are in a special time as fans to have so many great players who embrace the city and love it.

[@frankcastle5294]

He's one of the absolute best...he's a cherished team mate...he's a loose cannon...he's a heavy hitter. Everything this defense needs and lacked last season during epic meltdown.

[@ex-creations6563]

Ur the man CJ! 💚

[@welcom2myworld12]

He was my #1 priority last off season. Thought it was the biggest mistake of the off-season to let him go and extend James Trashberry.
