It’s hard to explain just how important Lane Johnson is to the Philadelphia Eagles, but pointing to his accolades is a solid start. The guy is a six-time Pro Bowler, five-time All Pro and a two-time Super Bowl champion. He’s been one of the absolute best offensive linemen in the entire NFL for over a decade.
So, Johnson’s status heading into Philadelphia’s Wild Card Round matchup with the San Francisco 49ers is of the utmost importance. Luckily, the Eagles just got some good news in that regard.
