โWeโre excited that Chauncey Gardner-Johnsonโs on-field competitiveness and expertise plays into his passion for gaming, and weโre excited for him to join the team,โ said Ryan Dell, SVP of Global Marketing, Turtle Beach Corporation. โAs the CEO of his own esports business, Chauncey Gardner-Johnson understands what it takes to win both as an individual and as a team, and this makes him a great partner for developing and producing content.โ
Chauncey Gardner-Johnson (CJ) was drafted in the 2019 NFL Draft by the New Orleans Saints. He quickly became a defensive leader known for his bold personality and his defensive prowess. Originally from Cocoa, Florida, CJ chose to play college football for the Florida Gators where he was a standout student athlete, earning MVP honors on multiple occasions in bowl games. As his on-field talents solidified he also became an avid gamer, streaming popular games like Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto, Madden, and Fortnite with his 2X Global gaming team.
Gardner-Johnsonโs arsenal of PC gaming accessories begins with ROCCATโs Kone Pro Air wireless PC gaming mouse. The Kone Pro Air combines the brandโs iconic and refined ergonomic shape with its latest tech, including ridiculously fast Titan Optical Switches, Stellar Wireless for optimized signal strength and battery life, the Owl-Eye 19K DPI Optical Sensor, Heat-Treated Pure PTFE Glides, and a lightweight 75g Bionic Shell that showcases ROCCATโs standout AIMO RGB lighting. For his keyboard, CJ uses the Vulcan TKL Pro, which popular gaming and lifestyle site T3 rated 5 out of 5 stars plus a T3 Platinum Award. The Vulcan TKL Pro is the smaller format, tenkeyless version of ROCCATโs multiple award-winning Vulcan series of PC gaming keyboards. The Vulcan TKL Pro also delivers the speed of ROCCATโs Titan Optical Switches, plus a sleek design with unique and alluring AIMO RGB lighting.
For gaming audio, Chauncey Gardner-Johnson uses his two favorite headsets from ROCCAT and Turtle Beach. ROCCATโs Syn Pro Air wireless PC gaming headset features the sleek design the brand is known for and blends it with Turtle Beachโs gaming audio expertise. The Syn Pro Air features ROCCATโs Stellar Wireless tech to optimize signal strength and battery life, and the same transparent Bionic Shell design that showcases the headsetโs impressive AIMO RGB lighting. For game audio and microphone performance, the Syn Pro Air delivers immersive 3D audio that lets gamers hear from all directions, including above and below. Signature Turtle Beach features include large and powerful 50mm Nanoclearโข drivers, Superhuman Hearingยฎ for a competitive advantage, ProSpecsโข Glasses-Friendly Memory Foam Cushions, and the detachable Flip-to-Mute TruSpeakโข Microphone for crystal-clear communication.
When heโs not using the Syn Pro Air, Gardner-Johnson can be seen using Turtle Beachโs Stealth 600 Gen 2 headset. Turtle Beachโs Stealth 600 has been the best-selling gaming headset series since they debuted because it offers an abundance of key features and top quality for an attractive $99 MSRP.
