C.J. Gardner-Johnson spoke for the first time since being cut by the Bills.
“In just a couple of weeks , EVERYONE turned on me!” He wrote. “No friends, no real support, it sucks we live in a society where one move can cause a downfall to anything! If this the last time yall see my face or hear from me it’s cause you don’t understand the person, went through years of pain , alone , suffering trying to fit in, never got the same opportunity everybody else got!
“And when I say same opportunities, just check my history ‘my attitude and character’ my position but no real stories to back that up! It’s ok though as a man I just pray that one day it get better.”
The 28-year-old Gardner-Johnson was cut by the Bills earlier this month after just six games with the team, which signed him this past offseason.
His release came one day after he completed his one-game suspension for spitting on an opponent during the Bills’ win over the Raiders on Oct. 18.
Gardner-Johnson started the Bills’ first six games this year before getting cut.
The talented but volatile defensive back has been on six teams across his eight-year NFL career and won the Super Bowl with the Eagles during the 2024-25 season.
He followed up his Instagram Story with another post that had a peace sign hand emoji.
