Detroit Lions defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson changes name to ‘Ceedy Duce’ Gardner-Johnson is out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle No description found
DETROIT – Detroit Lions
Gardner-Johnson announced the change of his name Friday (Oct. 27) night on X (Twitter), and he said it wasn’t a stunt of some sort as he had court documents to back up the decision.
“Officially changing my name to Ceedy Duce court documents otw,” wrote Gardner-Johnson.
Gardner-Johnson is out for the remainder of the 2023 season
The lost of his presence has been a significant blow to the Lions secondary as he was brought in to sow up the back end of the defense.
His presence was felt early as the 2023 offseason acquisition had 13 combined tackles through two games.
What do you think of the name change? How will the new name look on the back of Honolulu Blue next season?
