The Swifties are rejoicing.

Taylor Swift fans are not mad at the Philadelphia Eagles' recent trade of CJ Gardner-Johnson. The former Eagles safety got traded on Tuesday (March 11) to the Houston Texans for Kenyon Green. NFL fans were puzzled by his trade since he had two years left on his $27 million contract, which he signed last March.

However, Swift fans rejoiced over the constant disrespect that Gardner-Johnson has shown the singer and her boyfriend Travis Kelce. It first started out when Gardner-Johnson posted a photo of Kelce on Instagram Story of him in front of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end at the game and wrote, “Should have stayed with the thick sh*t,” referring to the tight end's ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole. The sports reporter and Kelce dated on and off from 2017-2022.

Kayla Nicole has been transparent about the backlash that she has received from people online.

“I would be lying if I said that that level of hate and just online chaos doesn’t impact me,” Kayla Nicole said in her interview with Angel Reese on her “Unapologetically Angel” podcast last year. “You could go to my most recent post and it’ll be people debating why I’m worthless and how I’ll never be a talented person.”

“It is nothing to do with me,” she continued. “I think there is something about that level of fame that attracts crazy people, which is unfortunate because I don't think I have done anything to warrant that kind of backlash.”

However, Gardner-Johnson did not stop and made a direct attack at Swift during the Eagles Super Bowl parade. The Eagles beat the Chiefs 40-22 at Super Bowl 59 and the safety took it as another opportunity to attack the singer.

The former Eagles safety wore a hooded sweatshirt that read “Swifties Can LIX My B—-” during the Eagles Super Bowl celebration parade last month.
