CJ Gardner-Johnson just woke up and chose violence. The Eagles DB became a dirty bird in no time. Um, to avoid any confusion, let’s do one better: ‘Naughty Bird’. That’s because he pulled up to the Super Bowl parade rocking a hoodie that’s going to burn Taylor Swift and the Swifties for a long time to come.
But how bad was it? Just picture him donning a hoodie that read: “Swifties can LIX my b*lls.” Yes. That’s real. Yes. He wore it in public. And no, he absolutely does not care about the consequences. The Swiftie-CJGJ war has officially reached scorched earth levels.
But let’s roll it back. How did we even get here? Well, it all started when the Eagles took down the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. Instead of just celebrating like a normal person, CJ decided to take a victory lap at Travis Kelce’s expense. He posted a pic with Kelce and captioned it, “Should’ve stayed with that thick [expletive].”

Now, unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know exactly who he meant—Kayla Nicole, Kelce’s ex. And Swifties? Oh, they did not appreciate that level of petty. So, they did what Swifties do best—they mobilized. And their target? His mother’s restaurant. Kings Grill got torched with fake one-star reviews, all because CJGJ ran his mouth.

But that is not getting Mama Johnson riled up as she was like, “Really? Y’all think this is doing something? The restaurant’s been closed.” Basically, the Swifties wasted their time, but they made their point—mess with Taylor’s people, and you will feel the wrath.
Now, you’d think maybe CJGJ would let it go. But nope. This man took it personally. That hoodie? That’s not just merch—that’s a declaration of war. And at a Super Bowl parade? Bold. Risky. Chaotic. But so far, we haven’t heard him respond to his ex-GF’s allegations against him. Oh, that’s some pickle he’s got himself in here.

CJ Gardner Johnson is just not there, per his ex-GF
Maybe CJGJ should spend less time talking about people and more time taking care of his own. We’re not saying it. That’s the message his ex, Summer Bunni, is screaming from the rooftops. And she didn’t hold back. In a series of Instagram posts, she accused him of threatening their four-year-old daughter and being a complete non-factor in their kids’ lives. That’s a far cry from his Super Bowl victory speech, where he took a shot at Travis Kelce while preaching about ‘protecting Black queens’, mentioning Trav’s ex, Kayla.
Summer? She’s calling BS. She put it bluntly: “Y’all letting that man hold that trophy, ask him to hold his kids fr.” Oof. And she didn’t stop there. She dragged his so-called “family man” image, pointing out how Patrick Mahomes and even Saquon Barkley are always spotted with their kids while CJGJ is busy chirping at NFL players.
The real kicker? She straight-up questioned his contributions to the Eagles’ championship, saying: “What play did you have in the Super Bowl that made you a champ? Water boys get rings too, right?” That’s not shade. That’s a full-blown eclipse.

And look, it’s not like Gardner-Johnson hasn’t made a name for himself on the field. He was part of the Eagles D that embarrassed the Chiefs and their #15, while also shutting down Kelce to just 39 yards. But off the field? Summer is making it sound like he’s playing prevent defense against his own responsibilities. And if her words hold weight, that “protect Black queens” speech he gave? Feels a little empty now.
So, what’s next? CJGJ doubled down on his comments in a livestream but avoided addressing the serious accusations. Convenient, huh? One thing’s for sure—this saga isn’t ending anytime soon. The question is, will he finally step up? Or just keep running his mouth while his ex keeps running up the receipts?
