I wouldn't get all worried just yet. Id imagine that even with the Savage signing that no player is off the table.
Signing Gardner would be hilarious as Philly would explode.
HTTR!

Agree. Though the wildcard about CJ is he's a headcase.

The 1st Round Pick
ESPN:
"Each of the Texans' three losses has been by 7 points or less. At minimum, according to team sources, Gardner-Johnson has allowed three big plays in those games that have contributed to the opposing offense scoring touchdowns, adding that Gardner-Johnson has struggled to consistently guard the correct opposing player when required to "match coverage" based on the Texans' defensive call and the routes run by the offense, struggles that also occurred during walk-throughs in the lead-up to games.
During Houston's Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, quarterback Matthew Stafford threw a 13-yard touchdown to tight end Davis Allen, who ran a corner route into the end zone, which Gardner-Johnson was responsible for. Texans cornerback Kamari Lassiter tried to clean up the coverage bust but wasn't able to run down Allen. Houston lost the game 14-9.
In Week 2, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield threw an over route to wideout Ryan Miller for a 20-yard touchdown on the game's opening drive. The Texans were in Cover-2, which required Gardner-Johnson to cover the deep right half of the field. He instead jumped a 10-yard in-breaking route from Buccaneers wideout Sterling Shepard, exposing the deep half for the Miller scoring reception. The Texans lost 20-19.
Last week against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Gardner-Johnson made a crucial mistake with the game knotted 10-10 late in the fourth quarter, jumping an out-breaking route by Parker Washington when he was responsible for anything over the middle of the field, Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence pounced on the mistake, hitting receiver Brian Thomas on a post for a 46-yard reception down to Houston's 10-yard line against man-to-man coverage.
Houston would allow Jaguars running back Travis Etienne to score a play later in an effort to preserve time for a game-rallying drive. But the damage was done and the Texans were unable to find the end zone, falling 17-10.
Compounding the coverage busts, Gardner-Johnson has refused to take responsibility for his mistakes, rubbing his teammates the wrong way, sources added, with one member of the team saying Gardner-Johnson "finger-pointed" instead of owning up to the mistake."
Texans release S Gardner-Johnson after 3 games
The Houston Texans released veteran safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson on Tuesday.
Yikes. No way we need that on the field or especially in the locker room.

Yes he's an asshole. We have a strong lock room and Lattimore is a bigger asshole.
And yes, he blew coverages. Like I said, he's great near the line, not in coverage.

Yeah he seems just awful to be around, but we could probably use more arrogance on our defense. He's a hell of a Blitzer and good against the run.
I've changed my tune on Butler, but CJ is similar, but better.

missing assignments? he will fit right in with our dbs
So if you miss your assignment on a poor adjustment...does the double negative make you a shutdown defender?
